$A$ copper ball of radius $r$ travels with a uniform speed $v$ in a viscous fluid. If the ball is changed with another ball of radius $2r$,then the new uniform speed will be

Two spheres $P$ and $Q$ of equal radii have densities $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$,respectively. The spheres are connected by a massless string and placed in liquids $L_1$ and $L_2$ of densities $\sigma_1$ and $\sigma_2$ and viscosities $\eta_1$ and $\eta_2$,respectively. They float in equilibrium with the sphere $P$ in $L_1$ and sphere $Q$ in $L_2$ and the string being taut (see figure). If sphere $P$ alone in $L_2$ has terminal velocity $\overrightarrow{V}_{P}$ and $Q$ alone in $L_1$ has terminal velocity $\overrightarrow{V}_{Q}$,then
$(A)$ $\frac{|\overrightarrow{V}_{P}|}{|\overrightarrow{V}_{Q}|}=\frac{\eta_1}{\eta_2}$
$(B)$ $\frac{|\overrightarrow{V}_{P}|}{|\overrightarrow{V}_{Q}|}=\frac{\eta_2}{\eta_1}$
$(C)$ $\overrightarrow{V}_{P} \cdot \overrightarrow{V}_{Q} > 0$
$(D)$ $\overrightarrow{V}_{P} \cdot \overrightarrow{V}_{Q} < 0$
