A piezoquartz oscillator (tuning fork) immersed in liquid is used to study the kinetic and dissipative processes in He II experimentally. The electrical response of the tuning fork near its resonance frequency is measured with different exciting voltages at temperatures ranging from 0.1Kto4.2K. The measured values of the half-width of the resonance curves made it possible to determine the viscosity of the normal component of He II in a wide temperature range. A maximum of the effective viscosity is found at temperature ∼0.5K; this maximum is due to a transition from the hydrodynamic to the ballistic regime in the phonon gas in He II. It is established that for low velocities of oscillation of the tuning fork the velocities are a linear function of the excitation force; this corresponds to laminar flow of the liquid in the boundary layer near the oscillating surface. The main dissipative process is associated with the viscosity of the normal component. The thickness of the boundary layer near the surface o...
