       Just a quick overview...
       Viscocity is the resistance to flow that is exhibited by all
       fluids. It is caused by internal friction due to sliding of one
       fluid layer on the other. For instance, if a liquid flows along
       a tube, two adjacent layers of the liquid will have different
       velocities due to the viscous force between them. Hence a more
       viscous liquid flows slowly and vice versa. You can attempt
       measuring viscocity by measuring the time taken for a given
       quantity of a liquid to flow through a capillary tube.
