The CGS unit for measuring the viscosity of a liquid is the poise (P): 1 P = 1 g / (s.cm). The SI unit for viscosity is the 1 kg / s.m. The viscosity of water at 0 °C is 2.04 x 10-3 kg/(s . m). Express this viscosity in poise.

The CGS unit for measuring the viscosity of a liquid is the poise (P): $1 \mathrm{P}=1 \mathrm{g} /(\mathrm{s} \cdot \mathrm{cm}) .$ The SI unit for viscosity is the $\mathrm{kg} /(\mathrm{s} \cdot \mathrm{m}) .$ The viscosity of water at $0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ is $1.78 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{kg} /(\mathrm{s} \cdot \mathrm{m})$ . Express this viscosity in poise.
The dynamic viscosity of water is 0.001 Pa·s. The kinematic viscosity is 0.2 × 10^-6 m^2/s. The kinematic viscosity is 0.31 m^2/s. The kinematic viscosity is 0.4 m^2/s. The kinematic viscosity is 10^-3 m^2/s. The kinematic viscosity is 1.0.1.
