NEET Physics Viscosity MCQ Question
A metal block of area 0.10 m² is connected to a 0.01 kg mass via a string that passes over a massless and frictionless pulley as shown in figure. A liquid with a film thickness of 0.3 mm is placed between the block and the table. When released the block moves to the right with a constant of 0.085 m s⁻¹. The coefficient of viscosity of the liquid is

2.5 × 10⁻³ Pa s
3.5 × 10⁻³ Pa s
4.5 × 10⁻³ Pa s
6.5 × 10⁻³ Pa s
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Using the formula for viscous force and given parameters, the viscosity is calculated to be 2.5 × 10⁻³ Pa s.
