Q. A small tiny lead shot is gently dropped on the surface of a viscous liquid
A) The lead shot will fall with an acceleration equal to g at that place
B) The velocity of lead shot will decrease with time
C) The velocity of lead shot will increase continuously
D) The velocity of lead shot will reach steady value after sometime
Explanation
(d) When a tiny lead short is gently dropped on the surface of a viscous liquid, the velocity of lead shot will increase with time and finally will reach to a steady value called terminal velocity
