In an experiment, a small steel ball falls through a Iiquid at a constant speed of \(10\, cm/s\). If the steel ball is pulled upward with a force equal to twice its effective weight, how fast will it move upward ? ......... \(cm/s\)

  1. A \(5\)
  2. B \(0\)
  3. C \(10\)
  4. D \(20\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(10\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Weight of the body \(W = mg = \frac{4}{3}\pi {r^3}\rho g\) \(T = \frac{4}{3}\pi {r^3}\sigma g\) \(and\,F = 6\pi \eta vr\) When the body attains terminal velocity net force acting on the body is zero \(i.e.,\) \(W - T - F = 0\) And terminal velocity…
