The terminal velocity of a liquid drop of radius $r$ falling through air is $v$. If two such drops are combined to form a bigger drop,the terminal velocity with which the bigger drop falls through air is (ignore any buoyant force due to air).

$A$ spherical ball of radius $1 \text{ mm}$ and density $10.5 \text{ g/cc}$ is dropped in glycerine of coefficient of viscosity $9.8 \text{ poise}$ and density $1.5 \text{ g/cc}$. Viscous force on the ball when it attains constant velocity is $3696 \times 10^{-x} \text{ N}$. The value of $x$ is (Given, $g = 9.8 \text{ m/s}^2$ and $\pi = 22/7$)

Two metal spheres are falling through a liquid of density $2.5 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ with the same uniform speed. The density of the material of the first sphere and the second sphere is $11.5 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ and $8.5 \times 10^3 \ kg/m^3$ respectively. The ratio of the radius of the first sphere to that of the second sphere is

An air bubble of $1\, cm$ radius is rising at a steady rate of $2.00\, mm/sec$ through a liquid of density $1.5\, g/cm^3$. Neglect the density of air. If $g = 1000\, cm/sec^2$,then the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid is:
