The fluid that can easily sweep through the fabric will be the 1 that has the least surface tension.

Of the 3 fluids given, water has the least surface tension.

Now, surface tension follows a negatively linear relationship with temperature, i.e higher the temperature, lower the surface tension.

Therefore, water at will have the least surface tension and therefore can easily sweep in through the fabric.
