A small sphere falls from rest in a viscous liquid. Due to friction, heat is produced. Find the relation between the rate of produced heat and the radius of the sphere at terminal velocity.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Rate of heat produced = F.v = `6 pieta rv_(tau).v_(tau)`
`(dQ)/(dt) = 6 pieta r.c2/tau , v_(T)=2/9 (sigma - rho) r^(2)g/eta `
`(dQ)/(dt) prop r^(5)`
