The terminal velocity of a copper ball of radius $5\,mm$ falling through a tank of oil at room temperature is $10\,cm\,s^{-1}$. If the viscosity of oil at room temperature is $0.9\,kg\,m^{-1}s^{-1}$,the viscous drag force is:

  • A
    $8.48 \times 10^{-3}\,N$
  • B
    $8.48 \times 10^{-5}\,N$
  • C
    $4.23 \times 10^{-3}\,N$
  • D
    $4.23 \times 10^{-6}\,N$
