What is the terminal velocity of an air bubble of $1.0 \ mm$ in diameter rising in a liquid of viscosity $0.85 \ N \ s \ m^{-2}$ and density $900 \ kg \ m^{-3}$? (Air density $= 1.293 \ kg \ m^{-3}$, $g = 9 \ m \ s^{-2}$)

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).

If the terminal speed of a sphere $A$ [density $\rho_A = 7.5 \ kg \ m^{-3}$] is $0.4 \ ms^{-1}$ in a viscous liquid [density $\rho_L = 1.5 \ kg \ m^{-3}$],the terminal speed of sphere $B$ [density $\rho_B = 3 \ kg \ m^{-3}$] of the same size in the same liquid is: (in $ms^{-1}$)

$A$ small sphere of mass $m$ is dropped from a great height. After it has fallen $100 \; m$,it has attained its terminal velocity and continues to fall at that speed. The work done by air friction against the sphere during the first $100 \; m$ of fall is
