Answer: C. Stoke
Stoke (cm²/s) is the CGS unit of kinematic viscosity (1 stoke = 10⁻⁴ m²/s).
Answer: B. is both incompressible and non-viscous
An ideal fluid is theoretical and defined as having both zero viscosity (frictionless) and zero compressibility (constant density).
Answer: D. Orsat
Redwood, Saybolt, and Engler are commercial viscometers; the Orsat apparatus is used for flue gas chemical analysis.
Answer: B. Frictionless and incompressible
An ideal fluid is defined as frictionless (non-viscous) and incompressible.
Answer: B. viscosity and rate of angular deformation
Newton's law links shear stress, viscosity, and rate of angular deformation: τ = μ(dθ/dt) = μ(du/dy). Answer (b) matches the official book key.
