Match List-I with List-II for a small solid sphere of volume , radius and density falling through a viscous fluid of density (where ) and coefficient of viscosity .
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| (A) Buoyant force | (I) |
| (B) Initial acceleration when just released | (II) |
| (C) Viscous force at terminal velocity | (III) |
| (D) Terminal velocity | (IV) |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- A(A) - (II), (B) - (III), (C) - (I), (D) - (IV)
- B(A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV)
- C(A) - (II), (B) - (I), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV)
- D(A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV)
Correct answer
D. (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV)
Step-by-step solution
(A) Buoyant force is the weight of the displaced fluid. For a sphere of volume in a fluid of density , . This matches (I).
(B) When just released, the initial velocity is zero, so the viscous force is zero. The net downward force is .
Initial acceleration . This matches (III).
(C) At terminal velocity, the sphere moves with constant velocity, so the net force is zero.
Viscous force . This matches (II).
(D) The terminal velocity of a sphere of radius falling in a viscous fluid of coefficient of viscosity is given by Stokes' law as . This matches (IV).
Therefore, the correct matching is (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV).
Answer: (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV)
(B) When just released, the initial velocity is zero, so the viscous force is zero. The net downward force is .
Initial acceleration . This matches (III).
(C) At terminal velocity, the sphere moves with constant velocity, so the net force is zero.
Viscous force . This matches (II).
(D) The terminal velocity of a sphere of radius falling in a viscous fluid of coefficient of viscosity is given by Stokes' law as . This matches (IV).
Therefore, the correct matching is (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV).
Answer: (A) - (I), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (IV)
