The terminal velocity v of a small steel...

The terminal velocity v of a small steel ball of radius r falling under gravity through a column of viscous liquid of coefficient of viscosity `eta` depends on mass of the bass m, acceleration due to gravity g, coefficient of viscosity `eta` and radius r. Which of the following relations is dimensionally correct ?

A

`v_(T) prop (m g r )/(eta)`

B

`v_(T) prop` m g `eta` r

C

`v_(T) prop (m g)/(r eta)`

D

`v_(T) prop (eta m g)/(r )`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c

`6 pi reta r v = mg, v prop mg//eta r`
