A thin square plate of side $2\ m$ is moving at the interface of two very viscous liquids of viscosities ${\eta _1} = 1$ poise and ${\eta _2} = 4$ poise respectively as shown in the figure. Assume a linear velocity distribution in each fluid. The liquids are contained between two fixed plates. $h_1 + h_2 = 3\ m$ . A force $F$ is required to move the square plate with uniform velocity $10\ m/s$ horizontally then the value of minimum applied force will be ........ $N$

A solid metallic sphere of radius $r$ is allowed to fall freely through air. If the frictional resistance due to air is proportional to the cross-sectional area and to the square of the velocity, then the terminal velocity of the sphere is proportional to which of the following?
Consider two solid spheres $\mathrm{P}$ and $\mathrm{Q}$ each of density $8 \mathrm{gm} \mathrm{cm}^{-3}$ and diameters $1 \mathrm{~cm}$ and $0.5 \mathrm{~cm}$, respectively. Sphere $\mathrm{P}$ is dropped into a liquid of density $0.8 \mathrm{gm} \mathrm{cm}^{-3}$ and viscosity $\eta=3$ poiseulles. Sphere $Q$ is dropped into a liquid of density $1.6 \mathrm{gm} \mathrm{cm}^{-3}$ and viscosity $\eta=2$ poiseulles. The ratio of the terminal velocities of $\mathrm{P}$ and $\mathrm{Q}$ is
Which falls faster, big rain drops or small rain drops ?
Which of the following is the incorrect graph for a sphere falling in a viscous liquid? (Given at $t = 0$, velocity $v = 0$ and displacement $x = 0$.)
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 same as its velocity just before entering the water surface, then the value of $h$ is proportional to :
