Q. The coefficient of viscosity for hot air is

AIIMSAIIMS 2012

Solution:

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.
