$A$ small ball of mass $m$ and density $\rho$ is dropped in a viscous liquid of density $\rho_0$. After some time,the ball falls with constant velocity. The viscous force on the ball is:

  • A
    $mg\left(\frac{\rho_0}{\rho}-1\right)$
  • B
    $mg\left(1+\frac{\rho}{\rho_0}\right)$
  • C
    $mg\left(1-\rho \rho_0\right)$
  • D
    $mg\left(1-\frac{\rho_0}{\rho}\right)$

Consider two solid spheres $P$ and $Q$ each of density $8 \ g \ cm^{-3}$ and diameters $1 \ cm$ and $0.5 \ cm$,respectively. Sphere $P$ is dropped into a liquid of density $0.8 \ g \ cm^{-3}$ and viscosity $\eta = 3 \ \text{poiseuille}$. Sphere $Q$ is dropped into a liquid of density $1.6 \ g \ cm^{-3}$ and viscosity $\eta = 2 \ \text{poiseuille}$. The ratio of the terminal velocities of $P$ and $Q$ is:

The diameter of an air bubble,which was initially $2\,mm$,rises steadily through a solution of density $1750\,kg\,m^{-3}$ at the rate of $0.35\,cm\,s^{-1}$. The coefficient of viscosity of the solution is (in poise,nearest integer). (The density of air is negligible).
