If the terminal speed of a sphere of gold (density 19·5 kg/m^(3)) is 0.2 m/s in a viscous liquid (density 1.5 kg/m^(3)), find the terminal speed of sphere of silver (density 10.5 kg//m^(3)) of same size in same liquid.

Answer»

0·2 m/s
0·4 m/s
0.1 m/s
0·3 m/s

Solution :Terminal VELOCITY v =`(2r2(p-SIGMA))/(9N)g`
`therefore(v_(2))/(v_(1))=((o_(2)-sigma)/(p_(1)-sigma))` as r and N are same`.
`thereforev_(2)=((10.5-1.5)/(19.5-1.5))xx0.2=0.1ms^(-1)`
THUS correct choice is ©.
