Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Fluids for which the shear stress is not linearly related to the shear strain rate are called non-Newtonian fluids examples include slurries and colloidal suspensions, polymer solutions, blood, paste, and cake batter.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some examples of Newtonian fluids include water, organic solvents, and honey. For those fluids viscosity is only dependent on temperature.
Detailed explanation-3: -A Newtonian fluid is one whose viscosity is not affected by shear rate: all else being equal, flow speeds or shear rates do not change the viscosity. Air and water are both Newtonian fluids.
