  • A
    $7 n^{2/3} \ cm/s$
  • B
    $5 n^{2/3} \ cm/s$
  • C
    $3 n^{2/3} \ cm/s$
  • D
    $9 n^{2/3} \ cm/s$

The terminal velocity of a liquid drop of radius $r$ falling through air is $v$. If two such drops are combined to form a bigger drop,the terminal velocity with which the bigger drop falls through air is (ignore any buoyant force due to air).

$A$ ball of radius $r$ and density $\rho$ falls freely under gravity through a distance $h$ before entering water. The velocity of the ball does not change even on entering the water. If the viscosity of water is $\eta$ and the density of water is $\sigma$ (assumed to be $1$ unit for calculation),the value of $h$ is given by:
