  Poise
Poise, as you will see by the time this entire activity is over, is really a combination of several components of my list; but it is important enough to me to warrant its own life.

the SI unit of dynamic viscosity, equal to 10 poise or 1000 centipoise.
Dynamic viscosity is measured by stating the force needed to move a standard area of one layer of the liquid or gas with respect to another layer, the two layers being parallel and separated by a standard distance filled with the same liquid or gas.
If a force of one dyne is needed to move one square centimeter of the liquid or gas relative to a second layer one centimeter away at a speed of one centimeter per second, then the viscosity is one poise.
