poise to stokes
Please provide values below to convert poise [P] to stokes [St], or change ↔.
poise [P]
Definition: A poise is a unit of dynamic viscosity that measures the internal friction of a fluid. One poise is equivalent to one dyne·second per square centimeter.
Historyandorigin: Named after Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille, a French physicist who studied the flow of liquids, the poise was widely used in medical and laboratory settings.
CurrentUse: Though somewhat replaced by the pascal second, it can still be found in older scientific and engineering literature.
funfact: A poise is a relatively large unit of viscosity—most fluids have viscosities much smaller than one poise!
stokes [St]
Definition: The stoke is a CGS unit of kinematic viscosity, measuring the rate at which a fluid flows under the influence of gravity.
Historyandorigin: Named after Sir George Gabriel Stokes, a British physicist who studied fluid motion and viscosity in the 19th century.
CurrentUse: Used in scientific research, especially in the study of the properties of fluids and gases.
funfact: The stoke is often used in fields like oceanography, where the movement of fluids in natural environments is studied!

How to Convert poise to stokes
1 poise [P] = 0.1 stokes [St]
1 stokes [St] = 10 poise [P]
we use cross multiplication method
poise [P] → stokes [St]
1 → 0.1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.1=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.15
