Consider two solid spheres P and Q each of density 8 gm cm−3c{m}^{- 3} and diameters 1 cm and 0.5 cm, respectively. Sphere P is dropped into a liquid of density 0.8 gm cm−3c{m}^{- 3} and viscosity η=3η = 3 poiseulles. Sphere Q is dropped into a liquid of density 1.6 gm cm−3c{m}^{- 3}and viscosity η=2η = 2 poiseulles. the ratio of the terminal velocities of P and Q is.

Correct answer

3

Step-by-step solution

{V}_{T} ∝ \dfrac{{r}^{2}\left[{d}_{m} - {d}_{L}\right]}{n}<br><br >\dfrac{{V}_{TP}}{{V}_{TQ}} = {\left(\dfrac{{r}_{P}}{{r}_{Q}}\right)}^{2} \times \dfrac{{n}_{{L}_{2}}}{{n}_{{L}_{1}}} \times \left[\dfrac{{d}_{m} - {d}_{{L}_{1}}}{{d}_{m} - {d}_{{L}_{2}}}\right]
VTPVTQ=(21)\dfrac{{V}_{TP}}{{V}_{TQ}} = {\left(\dfrac{2}{1}\right)}^{2} \times \dfrac{2}{3} \times \left[\dfrac{8 - 0.8}{8 - 1.6}\right]<br><br >\dfrac{{V}_{TP}}{{V}_{TQ}} = 3
