Q.

Figure shows a system of two balls of same volume =0.25m3 moving with terminal velocity in a long uniform viscous medium of negligible density. Balls are connected with a thin metal string of cross-section area 0.5cm2. Density of upper and lower ball are 1gm/cm3  and  9gm/cm3 respectively. In this situation metallic string is just about to break. Ultimate stress of material of a string is n×108N/m2. Find n ( g=10m/s2. Coefficient of viscosity is same for both bodies, ignore atmospheric pressure.)

Let v is the volume of balls
T-2g=6πηrv(1)1gT=6πηrv(2)T=12ρ1-ρ2Vg=104 N

Breaking stress =TA
=1040.5×104=2×108 N/m2
