$A$ small ball of mass $M$ and density $\rho$ is dropped in a viscous liquid of density $\rho_0$. After some time,the ball falls with a constant velocity. What is the viscous force on the ball?

  • A
    $F=Mg\left(1-\frac{\rho_0}{\rho}\right)$
  • B
    $F=Mg\left(1+\frac{\rho}{\rho_0}\right)$
  • C
    $F=Mg\left(1+\frac{\rho_0}{\rho}\right)$
  • D
    $F=Mg\left(1-\frac{\rho}{\rho_0}\right)$
