Consider two solid spheres P and Q each of density `8gm cm^-3` and diameters 1cm and 0.5cm, respectively. Sphere P is dropped into a liquid of density `0.8gm cm^-3` and viscosity `eta=3` poiseulles. Sphere Q is dropped into a liquid of density `1.6gmcm^-3` and viscosity `eta=2` poiseulles. The ratio of the terminal velocities of P and Q is

Two spheres P and Q of equal radii have densities rho_1 and rho_2 , respectively. The spheres are connected by a massless string and placed in liquids L_1 and L_2 of densities sigma_1 and sigma_2 and viscosities eta_1 and eta_2 , respectively.
