*It describes the internal friction of a moving [[fluid]]. A fluid with large viscosity resists [[motion]] because its molecular makeup gives it a lot of internal friction. A fluid with low viscosity flows easily because its [[molecular]] makeup results in very little friction when it is in motion. <ref> [http://www.princeton.edu/~gasdyn/Research/T-C_Research_Folder/Viscosity_def.html (Princeton University)] </ref> | *It describes the internal friction of a moving [[fluid]].
