A to Z Formula

What is Dimensional Formula of Dynamic Viscosity?

Dynamic viscosity can be defined as the tangential force per unit area required to slide one layer against other when two layers are maintained ad a unit distance.

Mathematically,
Dynamic viscosity = Stress ( Length / velocity).

Dimensional Formula of Stress= M1L-1T-2
Dimensional Formula of Length =M0L1T0
Dimensional Formula of velocity = M0L1T-1

Putting these values in above equation we get,

Dynamic viscosity = M1L-1T-2 ( T1)
Dynamic viscosity =M1L-1T-1

Dimensional Formula of Dynamic viscosity = M1L-1T-1
SI unit of Dynamic viscosity is Kg / ms
