stokes to kilostokes
Please provide values below to convert stokes [St] to kilostokes [kSt], or change ↔.
stokes [St]
Definition: A unit of kinematic viscosity, where 1 stokes equals 1 cm²/s.
Historyandorigin: Named after Sir George Stokes, it is commonly used in the CGS system for measuring kinematic viscosity.
CurrentUse: Commonly used in laboratory research and industry to measure the viscosity of liquids like oils, water, and other fluids.
funfact: Stokes is widely used in the study of fluids and is a standard unit for expressing kinematic viscosity.
kilostokes [kSt]
Definition: A unit of kinematic viscosity equal to 10^3 stokes.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the stokes unit, with the 'kilo-' prefix representing a factor of 10^3.
CurrentUse: Used in certain engineering and scientific fields for measuring fluid viscosity in larger systems.
funfact: Kilostokes represents very high viscosity fluids but is still relatively rare in common practice.

How to Convert stokes to kilostokes
1 stokes [St] = 0.001 kilostokes [kSt]
1 kilostokes [kSt] = 1000 stokes [St]
we use cross multiplication method
stokes [St] → kilostokes [kSt]
1 → 0.001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0015
