For example, there is a video that is used to demonstrate the viscosity of a liquid. It initially shows a steta of "viscosity 0". The liquid at this time is clear water, and its water column is relatively slender. When it hits the water surface, it will splash happily, and then, as the viscosity increases, As the value continues to increase, the liquid becomes thicker and thicker, and the speed of flowing down becomes slower and slower, until it finally reaches "viscosity 100", it is no longer water at all, it is simply like a solid hyptonic amssi n alf owi gnstaet.
