Correct Option is (D) All of these

We know that , the viscous force 

\(F = \eta A \left(\frac{dv}{dx}\right)\)

where,

F = Viscous Force

\(\eta\) = Viscocity cofficient

A = Area

dv = velocity change with dx

then viscous force is directly proportional to

\(F \propto \eta\)

\(F \propto A \)

\(F \propto v\)

Then , all option is correct
