What is the terminal velocity of an air bubble of $1.0 \ mm$ in diameter rising in a liquid of viscosity $0.85 \ N \ s \ m^{-2}$ and density $900 \ kg \ m^{-3}$? (Air density $= 1.293 \ kg \ m^{-3}$,$g = 9 \ m \ s^{-2}$)

  • A
    $V_T = 0.25 \ mm \ s^{-1}$
  • B
    $V_T = 0.5 \ mm \ s^{-1}$
  • C
    $V_T = 1.5 \ mm \ s^{-1}$
  • D
    $V_T = 2.5 \ mm \ s^{-1}$

Give two uses of Stoke's law.

$A$ small spherical ball of radius $0.1 \,mm$ and density $10^{4} \,kg \,m^{-3}$ falls freely under gravity through a distance $h$ before entering a tank of water. If after entering the water the velocity of the ball does not change and it continues to fall with the same constant velocity inside the water,then the value of $h$ will be $m$. (Given $g = 10 \,m \,s^{-2}$,viscosity of water $\eta = 1.0 \times 10^{-5} \,N \,s \,m^{-2}$,density of water $\rho_w = 10^3 \,kg \,m^{-3}$)
