$A$ solid metal sphere released in a vertical liquid column has attained terminal velocity in the downward direction. The magnitudes of viscous force, buoyant force, and gravitational force acting on it are $F_{v}$, $F_{B}$, and $F_{W}$ respectively. Then, the correct relation between them is:

  • A
    $F_{B} > F_{V} = F_{W}$
  • B
    $F_{W} = F_{V} + F_{B}$
  • C
    $F_{B} = F_{W} + F_{V}$
  • D
    $F_{V} = F_{B} + F_{W}$
