Viscous flow/Laminar flow
Question

From amongst the following curves, which one shows the variation of the velocity v with time t for a small sized spherical body falling vertically in a long column of a viscous liquid

Moderate
Solution

Initially gravity dominates viscosity, gradually velocity and viscous force increase. Hence at some instant, the forces balance each other and terminal velocity is reached.
