3. The force which opposes the relative motion between different layers of liquid or gases is called

Critical Velocity
Streamline Flow
Terminal Velocity
Viscous Force

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Critical Velocity - The maximum velocity upto which fluid motion is streamline is called Critical Velocity.

Streamline Flow - If velocity of all fluid particles is same all the time then it can be said in streamline flow.

Terminal Velocity - When a body falls in viscous medium, its velocity first increases and finally becomes constant. The constant velocity is called terminal velocity.
