A small steel ball of radius r is falling under gravity through a column of a viscous liquid of coefficient of viscosity η. Its terminal velocity vT depends on the mass of the ball m, acceleration due to gravity g, η and r. Which of the following relations is dimensionally correct?
  1. \(\begin{array}{c} v_{T} \operatorname{ming} p^{\prime} \end{array}\)
  2. \(v_{\tau} \times \frac{\mathrm{mg}}{\mathrm{r} \eta}\)
  3. \(v_{\tau} \approx \frac{\mathrm{mgr}}{\eta}\)
  4. \(v_{T} \pi \frac{\eta m g}{\rho}\)

Answer

(B) v_ mg r
