Coefficient of viscosity is defined as tangential force required to maintain a unit velocity gradient between two parallel layers of liquid of unit area. Mathematically, Coefficient of viscosity (η)= Fr/Av ——- F= tangential Force, Area, r= distance between the layers, v= velocity.

Answer:
The dimensions of viscosity can be determined based on how it is defined. It is defined as the property of a fluid that describe a stress (force/area) per velocity shear rate in the fluid (d velocity/d distance). So the dimensions are (F/A)/(V/L). That can be rearranged to F/(At) = F/(L^2 t).
