$A$ ball of radius $r$ and density $\rho$ falls freely under gravity through a distance $h$ before entering water. The velocity of the ball does not change even on entering the water. If the viscosity of water is $\eta$ and the density of water is $\sigma$ (assumed to be $1$ unit for calculation),the value of $h$ is given by:

$A$ small sphere of radius $r$ falls from rest in a viscous liquid. As a result,heat is produced due to viscous force. The rate of production of heat when the sphere attains its terminal velocity,is proportional to

$A$ small steel ball is dropped from a height of $1.5 \,m$ into a glycerine jar. The ball reaches the bottom of the jar $1.5 \,s$ after it was dropped. If the retardation in the glycerine is $2.66 \,m/s^2$, the height of the glycerine in the jar is about (acceleration due to gravity $g = 9.8 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,m$)
