An air bubble of $1\, cm$ radius is rising at a steady rate of $2.00\, mm/sec$ through a liquid of density $1.5\, gm$ per $cm^3$. Neglect density of air. If $g$ is $1000\, cm/sec^2$, then the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid is

A

$0.166\times10^3\, poise$

B

$166\times10^3\, poise$

C

$1.66\times10^3\, poise$

D

$16.6\times10^3\, poise$

Solution

$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{T}}=\frac{2}{9} \mathrm{r}^{2} \mathrm{g}\left[\frac{\rho_{\mathrm{liquid}}}{\eta}\right]$

$0.2=\frac{2}{9} \times 1^{2} \times 1000\left[\frac{1.5}{\eta}\right]$

$\eta=1.5 \times \frac{10^{3}}{0.9}$

$\eta=1.66 \times 10^{3}$ poise
