54. Why are liquids and gases categorised as fluids?

 

NEETprep Answer:
Liquids and gases have the tendency to flow,i.e., their molecules can move freely from one place to another. Therefore, they are known as fluids. e.g., glass panes fixed to windows or doors of old buildings are sometimes found to be thicker at bottom. This is due to ability of glass to flow.
