Two metal spheres are falling through a liquid of density $3 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ with the same uniform speed. The material densities of sphere $1$ and sphere $2$ are $8 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ and $11 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ respectively. The ratio of their radii is

  • A
    $11/8$
  • B
    $\sqrt{11/8}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{8/5}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{3/2}$

$A$ spherical ball of radius $1 \times 10^{-4} \,m$ and density $10^5 \,kg/m^3$ falls freely under gravity through a distance $h$ before entering a tank of water.
