What is the difference between Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid?

Water is an example of a Newtonian fluid. Non-Newtonian fluids include catsup, paint, liquid detergent, liquid polymers and a variety of other liquids.
In a Newtonian fluid, the relation between the shear stress and the strain rate is linear, the constant of proportionality being the coefficient of viscosity. In simple terms, the size of the drops is directly related to the thickness of the fluid, all else being equal.
In a non-Newtonian fluid, the relation between the shear stress and the strain rate is nonlinear, and can even be time-dependent. Therefore a constant coefficient of viscosity can not be defined. Multi-viscosity motor oil, which changes viscosity with temperature, is a common example. Newtonian fluids obey Newton's laws.but non Newtonian fluids does not obey Newton's laws.

What is the difference between effective viscosity and apparent viscosity for Non newtonian fluid?
both are same thingwhere, η - Apparent Viscosity
Is Asphalt a Newtonian fluid?
At high temperatures such as 275F (135C), asphalt is a Newtonian fluid. At low temperature, asphalt is a non-Newtonian fluid.
What is the relationship between shear stress and velocity gradient in a Newtonian fluid?
linear
What is a non Newton fluid?
a fluid whose flow properties differ in any way from those of Newtonian fluids.
What are the benefits of newtonian fluid?
Newtonian fluids are the most accurate way to measure the thickness of a liquid. Mathematics are involved in the calculations. The fluids are named for the great scientist Isaac Newton.
Is benzene a newtonian fluid or non-Newtonian fluid?

What is an example of a Newtonian fluid?
Circulating blood is a non-newtonian fluid
What is the relationship between shear stress and velocity gradient in a Newtonian fluid?
linear
At what concentration glycerol is Newtonian?
YES, Glycerin is Newtonian fluid.
Is Non Newtonian Fluid toxic?
Not all non-Newtonian fluid is toxic. A good example of this would be the synovial joints such as your knee making use of a non-Newtonian fluid (synovial fluid) There are a few that would be considered bad for your health.
What is meant by an ideal plastic fluid how it is diff from plastic fluid?
there are newtonian fluids and non newtonian fluids both of these belongs to real fluid which posses viscosity .newtonian fluids r those fluids which obey the newtons law of viscosity while the later doesnt.there r various types of non newtonian fluids like simple non newtonian fluid ,real plastic fluid and ideal plastic fluid an ideal plastic fluid has shear stress which is more than the yield value but after that it obeys the newtonian law of viscosity.
Are polymer Newtonian fluid?
yes
What is glurch?
a non newtonian fluid
Is ketchup a non-Newtonian fluid?
Some ketchups are newtonian, others are not. The popular brand "Heinz" advertises what would be non-newtonian characteristics.
