Kinematic viscosity= Dynamic viscosity/Density.
= 0.011/0.95 = 0.011578 = Approx 0.0116.

= 0.011/0.95 = 0.011578 = Approx 0.0116.

Here use the density of water as 1gm/cc directly instead of 1000kg/m^3 for ease so that the density of liquid will be 1*0.95 =0.95gm/cc.

As viscosity is given in the CGS system.

How 1poise=0.1n-s/m^2? Please explain in detail.
