Two equal drops of water are falling thr...

Two equal drops of water are falling through air with a steady volocity of `10 cm//s`. If the drops recombine to form a single drop what would be their terminal velocity ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of finding the terminal velocity of a single drop formed by the recombination of two equal drops, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between terminal velocity and radius The terminal velocity \( V_t \) of a drop is given by the formula: \[ V_t \propto r^2 \] where \( r \) is the radius of the drop. This means that the terminal velocity is proportional to the square of the radius. ...
