Consider two solid spheres P and Q each of density 8 gmcm-3and diameters 1 cm and 0.5 cm, respectively. Sphere P is dropped into a liquid of density 0.8 gmcm-3and viscosityη=3poiseulles. Sphere Q is dropped into a liquid of density 1.6 gmcm-and viscosityη=2poiseulles. the ratio of the terminal velocities of P and Q is.

Answer:
3
Solution:

VT r2dm-dLn
VTPVTQ=rPrQ2×nL2nL1×dm-dL1dm-dL2
VTPVTQ=212×23×8-0.88-1.6
VTPVTQ=3
