Answer» Correct Answer - C Here, r=0.0015 mm `=0.0015xx10^(-3) m` `eta=2.0xx10^(-5) kg m^(-1) s^(-1)` `rho=1.0xx10^(3) kg m^(-3)` `g=10 m s^(-2)` Neglecting the density of air, the terminal velocity of the water drop is `v_(T)=(2)/(9)(r^(2)rhog)/(eta)=(2xx(0.0015xx10^(-3))^(2)xx1.0xx10^(3)xx10)/(9xx2.0xx10^(-5))` `=2.5xx10^(-4) m s^(-1)` |
