Liquids which become more rigid as the rate of deformation increases is termed as_____________?
Correct answer: C. Dilatant
- A. Thixotropic
- B. Pseudoplastic
- C. Dilatant
- D. Newton
Explanation
Dilatant liquids are shear-thickening materials, so their apparent viscosity and rigidity increase as the rate of deformation rises. Pseudoplastic materials show the opposite behaviour and become less viscous with faster deformation.
