An air bubble of diameter $6\,mm$ rises steadily through a solution of density $1750\,kg/m^3$ at the rate of $0.35\,cm/s$. The coefficient of viscosity of the solution (neglect density of air) is $..........\,Pa\cdot s$ (given,$g = 10\,m/s^2$).

$A$ water drop of radius $1\,\mu m$ falls in a situation where the effect of buoyant force is negligible. The coefficient of viscosity of air is $1.8 \times 10^{-5}\,Nsm^{-2}$ and its density is negligible as compared to that of water $10^{3}\,kgm^{-3}$. The terminal velocity of the water drop is . . . . . . $\times 10^{-6}\,ms^{-1}$. (Take acceleration due to gravity $= 10\,ms^{-2}$)
