While determining the coefficient of viscosity of the given liquid,a spherical steel ball sinks by a distance $h=0.9 \,m$. The radius of the ball $r=\sqrt{3} \times 10^{-3} \,m$. The time taken by the ball to sink in three trials are tabulated as follows:
Trial No.Time taken by the ball to fall by $h$ (in second)
$1$.$2.75$
$2$.$2.65$
$3$.$2.70$
The difference between the densities of the steel ball and the liquid is $7000 \,kg \,m^{-3}$. If $g=10 \,ms^{-2}$,then the coefficient of viscosity of the given liquid at room temperature is

  • A
    $0.14 \,Pa \cdot s$
  • B
    $0.14 \times 10^{-3} \,Pa \cdot s$
  • C
    $14 \,Pa \cdot s$
  • D
    $0.28 \,Pa \cdot s$

An air bubble of radius $1 \ cm$ rises from the bottom portion through a liquid of density $1.5 \ g/cc$ at a constant speed of $0.25 \ cm \ s^{-1}$. If the density of air is neglected, the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid is approximately, (in $Pa \ s$):
