stokes to centistokes
Please provide values below to convert stokes [St] to centistokes [cSt], or change ↔.
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!
centistokes [cSt]
Definition: The centistoke is one one-hundredth of a stoke, used to measure the kinematic viscosity of fluids.
Historyandorigin: A smaller unit derived from the stoke, it is used for more precise viscosity measurements in fluid dynamics.
CurrentUse: Widely used in industries such as automotive, lubrication, and food processing.
funfact: Centistokes are commonly used to measure oils, where the viscosity can be very low but still crucial to machine function!

How to Convert stokes to centistokes
1 stokes [St] = 1 centistokes [cSt]
1 centistokes [cSt] = 1 stokes [St]
we use cross multiplication method
stokes [St] → centistokes [cSt]
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
