Two rain drops of same radius are falling through air each with a steady speed of 5 ~cm / s . If the drops coalesce, the new steady velocity of big drop will be
Options
- A5 ~cm / s
- B5 2 ~cm / s
- C5 2^ 1 / 3 ~cm / s
- D5 (4)^ 1 / 3 ~cm / s
Correct answer
D. 5 (4)^ 1 / 3 ~cm / s
Step-by-step solution
Terminal speed v r ^2 array ll & v₁ v₂ = r^2 R^2 = r^2 (2^ 1 / 3 r )^2 & v₂=v₁ (2^ 1 / 3 r )^2 r^2 =5 2^ 2 / 3 =5 4^ 1 / 3 ~cm ~s ⁻¹ array
