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 Millikan's oll drop experiment, what is the terminal speed of an uncharged drop of radius $2.0 \times 10^{-5} \;m$ and density $1.2 \times 10^{3} \;kg m ^{-3} .$ Take the viscosity of air at the temperature of the experiment to be $1.8 \times 10^{-5}\; Pa\; s$. How much is the viscous force on the drop at that speed? Neglect buoyancy of the drop due to atr.
State stokes’ law. By using it deduce the expression for :
$(i)$ initial acceleration of smooth sphere and
$(ii)$ equation of terminal velocity of sphere falling freely through the viscous medium.
$(iii)$ Explain : Upward motion of bubbles produced in fluid.
The terminal velocity of a copper ball of radius $2.0 \;mm$ falling through a tank of oll at $20\,^{\circ} C$ is $6.5 \;cm s ^{-1} .$ Compute the viscosity of the oil at $20\,^{\circ} C .$ Density of oil is $1.5 \times 10^{3} \;kg m ^{-3},$ density of copper is $8.9 \times 10^{3} \;kg m ^{-3}$
Two small spherical metal balls, having equal masses, are made from materials of densities $\rho_{1}$ and $\rho_{2}\left(\rho_{1}=8 \rho_{2}\right)$ and have radii of $1\; \mathrm{mm}$ and $2\; \mathrm{mm}$, respectively. They are made to fall vertically (from rest) in a viscous medum whose coefficient of viscosity equals $\eta$ and whose denstry is $0.1 \mathrm{\rho}_{2} .$ The ratio of their terminal velocitites would be
