Eight spherical rain drops of the same mass and radius are falling down with a terminal speed of $6 \,cm \,s^{-1}$. If they coalesce to form one big drop, what will be the terminal speed of the bigger drop? (Neglect the buoyancy of the air)

When a body falls in air,the resistance of air depends to a great extent on the shape of the body. $3$ different shapes are given in the figure: $(1)$ Disc,$(2)$ Ball,and $(3)$ Cigar-shaped. Identify the combination of air resistances $(R_1, R_2, R_3)$ which truly represents the physical situation. (The cross-sectional areas are the same).
