τ (Pascal)

0

6

18

30

 

The fluid classified as:

A. Binghamplastic

B. Dilatent

C. Newtonian

D. Ideal

Please scroll down to see the correct answer and solution guide.

Right Answer is: C

SOLUTION

Concept:

→ τ & du/dy are in linear relationship

→ Slope is constant

∴ Fluid is Newtonian fluid
