Correct answer
B. (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
Step-by-step solution
According to Stokes' law, the viscous force on a spherical body is .
For a constant given velocity , the viscous force . Thus, (A) matches with (III).
The terminal velocity of a sphere falling under gravity is given by .
Therefore, terminal velocity . Thus, (B) matches with (IV).
The viscous force at terminal velocity is .
Substituting , we get . Thus, (C) matches with (I).
An ideal fluid is non-viscous (). Therefore, the viscous drag is zero. Thus, (D) matches with (II).
The correct matching is (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II).
Answer: (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
