$A$ small steel ball is dropped from a height of $1.5 \,m$ into a glycerine jar. The ball reaches the bottom of the jar $1.5 \,s$ after it was dropped. If the retardation in the glycerine is $2.66 \,m/s^2$, the height of the glycerine in the jar is about (acceleration due to gravity $g = 9.8 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,m$)

$A$ solid sphere of radius $R$ acquires a terminal velocity $\nu_1$ when falling (due to gravity) through a viscous fluid having a coefficient of viscosity $\eta$. The sphere is broken into $27$ identical solid spheres. If each of these spheres acquires a terminal velocity $\nu_2$ when falling through the same fluid,the ratio $(\nu_1/\nu_2)$ equals:

What is the terminal velocity of a rain drop of radius $0.02 \ mm$ (in $cm \ s^{-1}$)? [Note that the coefficient of viscosity of air is $1.8 \times 10^{-5} \ N \ s \ m^{-2}$, density of water is $1000 \ kg \ m^{-3}$. Use $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$ and density of air can be neglected in comparison with the density of water.]

The velocity of a small ball of mass $M$ and density $d_1$ when dropped in a container filled with glycerin becomes constant after some time. If the density of glycerin is $d_2$,the viscous force acting on the ball is ($g$ = acceleration due to gravity).

If the average terminal velocity of a rain drop is $2 \,m/s$, then the energy transferred by rain to each square metre of the surface at a place which receives $100 \,cm$ of rain in a year is

The velocity of a small ball of mass $M$ and density $d$,when dropped in a container filled with glycerine,becomes constant after some time. If the density of glycerine is $\frac{d}{2}$,then the viscous force acting on the ball will be:
