A small metal sphere of mass 'M' and density 'd \(_{1}\) ', when dropped in a jar filled with liquid moves with terminal velocity after some time. The viscous force acting on the sphere is \(\left(d_{2}=\right.\) density of liquid, \(\mathrm{g}=\) gravitational acceleration \()\)

  1. A \(\operatorname{Mg}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{d}_{2}}{\mathrm{~d}_{1}}\right)\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{M}_{g}\left(\frac{\mathrm{d}_{2}}{\mathrm{~d}_{1}}\right)\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{M}_{g}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{d}_{1}}{\mathrm{~d}_{2}}\right)\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\operatorname{Mg}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{d}_{2}}{\mathrm{~d}_{1}}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{F}=\frac{4}{3} \pi \mathrm{r}^{3}\left(\mathrm{~d}_{1}-\mathrm{d}_{2}\right) \mathrm{g}\)
\(\mathrm{F}=\frac{4}{3} \pi \mathrm{r}^{3} \mathrm{~d}_{1}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{d}_{2}}{\mathrm{~d}_{1}}\right) \mathrm{g}=\mathrm{M}\left(1-\frac{\mathrm{d}_{2}}{\mathrm{~d}_{1}}\right) \mathrm{g}\)
