Establish its formal definition: how great the damping force against how large a body at what velocity. Fluid mechanics has not really been started on this site yet. I have a degree semester to infodump.
You can help $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$ by expanding it.
Definition
The viscosity of a fluid is a measure of how large a damping force it exerts upon a body moving through it.
Establish its formal definition: how great the damping force against how large a body at what velocity. Fluid mechanics has not really been started on this site yet. I have a degree semester to infodump.
