$A$ sphere of radius $r$ and density $\rho$ is dropped from a height $h$. When it falls into water,it attains a terminal velocity. If the coefficient of viscosity of water is $\eta$,then $h =$

  • A
    $\frac{2}{9}{r^2}\left( {\frac{{1 - \rho }}{\eta }} \right)\,g$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{{81}}{r^2}\left( {\frac{{\rho - 1}}{\eta }} \right)\,g$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{{81}}{r^4}{\left( {\frac{{\rho - 1}}{\eta }} \right)^2}g$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{9}{r^4}{\left( {\frac{{\rho - 1}}{\eta }} \right)^2}g$

In an experiment to calculate the coefficient of viscosity of a liquid by measuring terminal velocity, it was observed that a ball of mass $(\frac{\pi}{2}) \ gm$ and radius $0.5 \ cm$ takes $5 \ s$ to fall steadily through a height of $50 \ cm$ inside a long column of liquid of density $1.2 \ gm/cc$. The coefficient of viscosity will be given as: (in $\text{poise}$)

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 the same as its velocity just before entering the water surface,then the value of $h$ is proportional to: (ignore viscosity of air)
