According to Newton,the viscous force acting between liquid layers of area $A$ and velocity gradient $\Delta v/\Delta z$ is given by $F = - \eta A \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta z}$,where $\eta$ is a constant called the coefficient of viscosity. The dimensions of $\eta$ are:

  • A
    $[M L^2 T^{-2}]$
  • B
    $[M L^{-1} T^{-1}]$
  • C
    $[M L^{-2} T^{-2}]$
  • D
    $[M^0 L^0 T^0]$
