Hypervelocity is very high velocity, approximately over 3,000 meters per second (6,700 mph, 11,000 km/h, 10,000 ft/s, or Mach 8.8). In particular, hypervelocity is velocity so high that the strength of materials upon impact is very small compared to inertial stresses. Thus, even metals behave like fluids under hypervelocity
Viscosity. Viscosity measures the resistance of a solution to flow when a stress is applied. The viscosity of a solution is given in poise units. The unit centipoise (cp or the plural cps) is equal to 0.01 poise and is most often used in pharmaceutical applications.Compounds used to enhance viscosity are available in various grades such as 15 cps, 100 cps, etc.he unit centipoise (cp or the plural cps) is equal to 0.01 poise and is most often used in pharmaceutical applications.
