Q.

Turpentine oil is flowing through a tube of length l and radius r. The pressure difference between the two ends of the tube is P; the viscosity of the oil is given by η=P(r2x2)4vl where v is the velocity of oil at a distance x from the axis of the tube. From this relation, the dimensions of viscosity η are

η=p.(r2-x2)4VL

For the dimension of viscosity η=[pressure][L2][LT-1][L]

We have to know the dimensions of pressure; which in turn is force per unit area.

[pressure]=[ML-1T-2]

  η=[ML-1T-2][L2][LT-1][L]=[ML-1T-1]
