### Step-by-Step Solution **Step 1: Define Stokes' Law** Stokes' Law states that the viscous force \( F_v \) acting on a spherical object moving through a viscous fluid is directly proportional to the velocity \( v \) of the object, the viscosity \( \eta \) of the fluid, and the radius \( r \) of the sphere. Mathematically, it is expressed as: \[ F_v = 6 \pi \eta r v \] where: ...
