The velocity of a small ball of mass $M$ and density $d$,when dropped in a container filled with glycerine,becomes constant after some time. If the density of glycerine is $\frac{d}{2}$,then the viscous force acting on the ball will be:

  • A
    $\frac{Mg}{2}$
  • B
    $Mg$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2} Mg$
  • D
    $2 Mg$
