Viscosity is closely related to:
Correct answer: A. Friction
- A. Friction
- B. Adhesive molecular force
- C. Cohesive molecular force
- D. Barnoulli's theorem
Explanation
Viscosity and friction share similarities. Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, primarily due to internal friction between its molecules. On the other hand, friction typically refers to the resistance to relative motion between two solid surfaces in contact.

About Physics of Solids
Solids are compared through crystal structure, amorphous arrangement, elasticity, plastic deformation, stress, strain and Young’s modulus. Electrical behavior depends on available charge carriers and band structure, so conductors, insulators and semiconductors must be distinguished from mechanical properties such as strength, stiffness and brittleness.
