Two drops of equal radius are falling with a terminal velocity of $5 \, cm/s$. If they coalesce to form a single larger drop,what will be the terminal velocity of the new drop?

  • A
    $10 \, cm/s$
  • B
    $2.5 \, cm/s$
  • C
    $5 \times (4)^{1/3} \, cm/s$
  • D
    $5 \times \sqrt{2} \, cm/s$
