The correct answer is:

Figure shows the flow speed profile for laminar flow of a viscous fluid in a long cylindrical pipe. The speed is greatest along the axis and zero at the pipe walls,

We know that,v=R2μ-dPdx

where, R=radius of pipe

μ=viscosity

So, according to the above explanation solution 3 is correct.
