$A$ spherical ball of radius $1 \text{ mm}$ and density $10.5 \text{ g/cc}$ is dropped in glycerine of coefficient of viscosity $9.8 \text{ poise}$ and density $1.5 \text{ g/cc}$. Viscous force on the ball when it attains constant velocity is $3696 \times 10^{-x} \text{ N}$. The value of $x$ is (Given, $g = 9.8 \text{ m/s}^2$ and $\pi = 22/7$)
