$A$ cubical block of side $a$ and density $\rho$ slides over a fixed inclined plane with constant velocity $v$. There is a thin film of viscous fluid of thickness $t$ between the plane and the block. If the angle of inclination is $37^{\circ}$,then the coefficient of viscosity of the thin film will be:

  • A
    $\frac{3\rho a g t}{5v}$
  • B
    $\frac{4\rho a g t}{5v}$
  • C
    $\frac{\rho a g t}{v}$
  • D
    None of these
