Which of the following phenomena is not due to surface tension?

$A$ motor is used to deliver water at a certain rate through a given horizontal pipe. To deliver $n$-times the water through the same pipe in the same time, the power of the motor must be increased as follows:

$A$ table tennis ball has radius $(3 / 2) \times 10^{-2} \text{ m}$ and mass $(22 / 7) \times 10^{-3} \text{ kg}$. It is slowly pushed down into a swimming pool to a depth of $d = 0.7 \text{ m}$ below the water surface and then released from rest. It emerges from the water surface at speed $v$,without getting wet,and rises up to a height $H$. Which of the following option$(s)$ is (are) correct?
[Given: $\pi = 22 / 7, g = 10 \text{ ms}^{-2}$,density of water $= 1 \times 10^3 \text{ kg m}^{-3}$,viscosity of water $= 1 \times 10^{-3} \text{ Pa-s}$.]
$(A)$ The work done in pushing the ball to the depth $d$ is $0.077 \text{ J}$.
$(B)$ If we neglect the viscous force in water,then the speed $v = 7 \text{ m/s}$.
$(C)$ If we neglect the viscous force in water,then the height $H = 1.4 \text{ m}$.
$(D)$ The ratio of the magnitudes of the net force excluding the viscous force to the maximum viscous force in water is $500 / 9$.

Two solid spheres $A$ and $B$ of equal volumes but of different densities $d_A$ and $d_B$ are connected by a string. They are fully immersed in a fluid of density $d_F$. They get arranged into an equilibrium state as shown in the figure with a tension in the string. The arrangement is possible only if:
$(A)$ $d_A < d_F$
$(B)$ $d_B > d_F$
$(C)$ $d_A + d_B = 2d_F$
$(D)$ $d_A > d_F$
