The kinematic viscosity of the oil can be calculated by ___________(a) V = ŋ+ρ(b) V = ŋ/ρ(c) V = ŋ – ρ(d) V = ŋ*ρI had been asked this question in unit test.My question is based upon Viscosity and Viscosity Index topic in chapter Lubricants of Applied Chemistry

Answer»

Right answer is (b) V = ŋ/ρ

For EXPLANATION: The kinematic viscosity means the viscosity that determines the kinematic ENERGY of the LIQUID that means it determines the speed of the oil. So, the kinematic viscosity of the oil is GIVEN by V=ŋ/ρ, where ŋ = ABSOLUTE viscosity of the oil and ρ = density of the oil.
