Viscosity
Question

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

Moderate
Solution

Here β = 6πηrv

    43πr3ρ1g = 6πηrv 

Put the values and get η = 1.66 × 103 poise
