In an experiment to verify Stokes' law,a small spherical ball of radius $r$ and density $\rho$ falls under gravity through a distance $h$ in air before entering a tank of water. If the terminal velocity of the ball inside water is the same as its velocity just before entering the water surface,then the value of $h$ is proportional to: (ignore viscosity of air)

Small water droplets of radius $0.01 \,mm$ are formed in the upper atmosphere and falling with a terminal velocity of $10 \,cm/s$. Due to condensation, if $8$ such droplets are coalesced to form a larger drop, the new terminal velocity will be ........... $cm/s$.
