In an experiment to calculate the coefficient of viscosity of a liquid by measuring terminal velocity, it was observed that a ball of mass $(\frac{\pi}{2}) \ gm$ and radius $0.5 \ cm$ takes $5 \ s$ to fall steadily through a height of $50 \ cm$ inside a long column of liquid of density $1.2 \ gm/cc$. The coefficient of viscosity will be given as: (in $\text{poise}$)

  • A
    $4.9$
  • B
    $9.8$
  • C
    $12.6$
  • D
    $16$
