A spherical solid ball of volume V is made of a material of density . It is falling through a liquid of density . Assume that the liquid applies a viscous force on the ball that is proportional to the square of its speed v. i.e., . The terminal speed of the ball is -
Options:
Answer:
A
Solution:

At terminal speed, net force is zero.
Weight acts downward; buoyancy and viscous drag act upward:
Rearrange:
Hence A.
