$A$ metal sphere of radius $R$,density $\rho_1$ moves with terminal velocity $V_1$ through a liquid of density $\sigma$. Another sphere of same radius but density $\rho_2$ moves through the same liquid. Its terminal velocity is $V_2$. The ratio $V_1: V_2$ is

An air bubble of $1\, cm$ radius is rising at a steady rate of $2.00\, mm/sec$ through a liquid of density $1.5\, g/cm^3$. Neglect the density of air. If $g = 1000\, cm/sec^2$,then the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid is:

$A$ water drop whose radius is $0.0015 \, mm$ is falling through the air. If the coefficient of viscosity of air is $1.8 \times 10^{-5} \, kg/(m \cdot s)$,then assuming the buoyancy force is negligible,the terminal velocity of the drop will be:

$A$ small spherical ball of radius $0.1 \,mm$ and density $10^{4} \,kg \,m^{-3}$ falls freely under gravity through a distance $h$ before entering a tank of water. If after entering the water the velocity of the ball does not change and it continues to fall with the same constant velocity inside the water,then the value of $h$ will be $m$. (Given $g = 10 \,m \,s^{-2}$,viscosity of water $\eta = 1.0 \times 10^{-5} \,N \,s \,m^{-2}$,density of water $\rho_w = 10^3 \,kg \,m^{-3}$)

$A$ small sphere of radius $r$ falls from rest in a viscous liquid. As a result,heat is produced due to viscous force. The rate of production of heat when the sphere attains its terminal velocity,is proportional to
