What does square centimeter per second measure?

It measures kinematic viscosity, representing the ratio of a fluid's dynamic viscosity to its density, indicating momentum diffusivity.

What is a femtostoke?

A femtostoke is a CGS-derived unit of kinematic viscosity equal to 10⁻¹⁵ stokes, used to express extremely small viscosity values.

When should I use femtostokes for viscosity measurement?

Femtostokes are appropriate for nanoscale or molecular fluid simulations, microfluidics, and situations requiring very high precision at extremely low viscosities.
