Cold air is significantly more viscous, but the viscosity of air is so low that you'd really never notice it anyway.Hot air feels more viscous, it's probably because hot air tends to have more water vapor in it, and humid air tends to feel thicker.

    A fluid is flowing through a horizontal pipe of varying cross-section, with speed $v\;ms^{-1}$ at a point where the pressure is $P$ Pascal. At another point where pressure is $\frac{ P }{2}$ Pascal its speed is $V\;ms^{-1}$. If the density of the fluid is $\rho\, kg\, m ^{-3}$ and the flow is streamline, then $V$ is equal to
