MCQ
The viscous force acting between two layers of a liquid is given by $\frac{\text{F}}{\text{A}}=-\eta\frac{\text{dv}}{\text{dz}}$ This $\frac{\text{F}}{\text{A}}$ may be called:
  • A
    Pressure.
  • B
    Longitudinal stress.
  • Tangential stress.
  • D
    Volume stress.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Tangential stress.
Explanation:
The viscous force acts tangentially between two parallel layers of a liquid. In terms of force on a material, it is analogous to a shearing force.

An electron in hydrogen atom after absorbing energy photons can jump between energy states $n_1$ and $n_2(n_2 > n_1)$. Then it may return to ground state after emitting six different wavelengths in emission spectrum. the energy of emitted photons is either equal to, less than or greater than the absorbed photons. Then $n_1$ and $n_2$ are:
