The terminal velocity $v$ of a spherical ball of lead of radius $R$ falling through a viscous liquid varies with $R$ such that

$A$ solid sphere of radius $R$ acquires a terminal velocity $\nu_1$ when falling (due to gravity) through a viscous fluid having a coefficient of viscosity $\eta$. The sphere is broken into $27$ identical solid spheres. If each of these spheres acquires a terminal velocity $\nu_2$ when falling through the same fluid,the ratio $(\nu_1/\nu_2)$ equals:

$A$ 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:
