$A$ small metal sphere of mass $M$ and density $d_{1}$,when dropped in a jar filled with liquid,moves with terminal velocity after some time. The viscous force acting on the sphere is ($d_{2} =$ density of liquid,$g =$ gravitational acceleration).

In Millikan's oil drop experiment,what is the terminal speed of an uncharged drop of radius $2.0 \times 10^{-5} \; m$ and density $1.2 \times 10^{3} \; kg \; m^{-3}$? Take the viscosity of air at the temperature of the experiment to be $1.8 \times 10^{-5} \; Pa \; s$. How much is the viscous force on the drop at that speed? Neglect buoyancy of the drop due to air.

$A$ 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

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 $\text{poise}$)

$A$ lead sphere of mass $m$ falls with a terminal velocity $V$ in a viscous liquid. With what terminal velocity will another lead sphere of mass $8m$ fall in the same liquid?
