How many times is the shearing stress of a fluid compared to the shearing stress of a solid when subjected to the same deformation?

Write $SI$ and $CGS$ unit of coefficient of viscosity.

For the situation shown in the figure,water flows on the surface of a fixed plate. The velocity of water as a function of distance $y$ is given as: $u = \alpha \left[ \frac{y}{h} - 2\left( \frac{y}{h} \right)^2 \right]$. Determine the magnitude of the shear stress that the water applies at the base of the plate. The coefficient of viscosity is $\eta$.

$A$ metal block of area $0.10 \; m^2$ is connected to a $0.010 \; kg$ mass via a string that passes over an ideal pulley (considered massless and frictionless),as shown in the figure. $A$ liquid with a film thickness of $0.30 \; mm$ is placed between the block and the table. When released,the block moves to the right with a constant speed of $0.085 \; m s^{-1}$. Find the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid.

Water is flowing steadily in a river. $A$ and $B$ are two layers of water at heights $40 \ cm$ and $90 \ cm$ from the bottom. The velocity of layer $A$ is $12 \ cm/s$. If the velocity of the water at the bottom is $0$,what is the velocity of layer $B$ (in $cm/s$)?

The coefficient of viscosity for hot air is
