While determining the coefficient of viscosity of the given liquid,a spherical steel ball sinks by a distance $h=0.9 \,m$. The radius of the ball $r=\sqrt{3} \times 10^{-3} \,m$. The time taken by the ball to sink in three trials are tabulated as follows:
Trial No.Time taken by the ball to fall by $h$ (in second)
$1$.$2.75$
$2$.$2.65$
$3$.$2.70$
The difference between the densities of the steel ball and the liquid is $7000 \,kg \,m^{-3}$. If $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$,then the coefficient of viscosity of the given liquid at room temperature is

  • A
    $0.14 \,Pa \cdot s$
  • B
    $0.14 \times 10^{-3} \,Pa \cdot s$
  • C
    $14 \,Pa \cdot s$
  • D
    $0.28 \,Pa \cdot s$

An air bubble of $1\, cm$ radius is rising at a steady rate of $2.00\, mm/sec$ through a liquid of density $1.5\, g/cm^3$. Neglect the density of air. If $g = 1000\, cm/sec^2$,then the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid is:
