• B.
  Fluid friction always opposes the relative motion.
• C. Fluid friction increases with an increase in relative speed.
• D. Fluid friction does not depend on the nature of the medium

Answer 1

The friction experienced by a body in a fluid medium depends on

- Shape of the body
- Speed of the body
- Nature of the medium

Hence, option b is incorrect.
