Compare with Definitions
Viscosity
The viscosity of a fluid is a measure of its resistance to deformation at a given rate. For liquids, it corresponds to the informal concept of "thickness": for example, syrup has a higher viscosity than water.Viscosity can be conceptualized as quantifying the internal frictional force that arises between adjacent layers of fluid that are in relative motion.
Gelatinousness
The quality of being gelatinous.
Viscosity
The condition or property of being viscous.
Gelatinousness
The property of having a viscosity like jelly
Viscosity
(Physics) Coefficient of viscosity.

Viscosity
(uncountable) The state of being viscous.
Viscosity
A quantity expressing the magnitude of internal friction in a fluid, as measured by the force per unit area resisting uniform flow.
Viscosity
A tendency to prolong interpersonal encounters.
Viscosity
The quality or state of being viscous.
Viscosity
A property possessed by a viscous fluid, being a resistance to the forces causing a fluid to flow, caused by interactions between the molecules of the fluid and between the fluid and the walls of the conduit through which it moves; also, a measure of such a property.
Viscosity
Resistance of a liquid to sheer forces (and hence to flow)
