$A$ small sphere of mass $m$ is dropped from a great height. After it has fallen $100 \; m$,it has attained its terminal velocity and continues to fall at that speed. The work done by air friction against the sphere during the first $100 \; m$ of fall is

If the terminal speed of a sphere of gold (density $= 19.5 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$) is $0.2 \ m/s$ in a viscous liquid (density $= 1.5 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$), find the terminal speed (in $m/s$) of a sphere of silver (density $= 10.5 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$) of the same size in the same liquid.

$A$ metal sphere of mass $m$ and density $\sigma_1$ falls with terminal velocity through a container containing liquid. The density of the liquid is $\sigma_2$. The viscous force acting on the sphere is:
