    $v/2$
  • B
    $v/4$
  • C

$A$ spherical body of mass $m$ and radius $r$ is allowed to fall in a medium of viscosity $\eta$. The time in which the velocity of the body increases from zero to $0.63$ times the terminal velocity $(v)$ is called the time constant $(\tau)$. Dimensionally,$\tau$ can be represented by:
