$A$ spherical ball of density $\rho$ and radius $0.003 \ m$ is dropped into a tube containing a viscous fluid filled up to the $0 \ cm$ mark as shown in the figure. The viscosity of the fluid $\eta = 1.260 \ N \cdot s \cdot m^{-2}$ and its density $\rho_L = \rho/2 = 1260 \ kg \cdot m^{-3}$. Assume the ball reaches a terminal speed by the $10 \ cm$ mark. The time taken by the ball to traverse the distance between the $10 \ cm$ and $20 \ cm$ mark is $(g = 10 \ m \cdot s^{-2})$

  • A
    $500 \ \mu s$
  • B
    $50 \ ms$
  • C
    $0.5 \ s$
  • D
    $5 \ s$
