Viscosity
Question

A drop of radius 0 .1 mm and density 10 g/cm3 falls freely under gravity through a distance ft before entering the water. After entering the water the velocity of the ball does not change. Given that g =10 m / s2. What is the value of h ? The viscosity of water =10 x 10-6 P

Moderate
Solution

Velocity acquired by the drop is equal to terminal velocity
(2gh)=29(ρσ)ηr2g r=01mm=102cm,ρ=10g/cm3,σ=1g/cm3 η=10×106=100×106P=104P h=20m
