The velocity of a small ball of mass $m$ and density $\rho$ when dropped in a container filled with glycerine of density $\sigma$ becomes constant after some time. The viscous force acting on the ball in the final stage is

  • A
    $mg\left( \frac{\sigma}{\rho} \right)$
  • B
    $mg\left( 1 + \frac{\sigma}{\rho} \right)$
  • C
    $mg\left( 1 - \frac{\sigma}{\rho} \right)$
  • D
    $mg$
