Buoyancy force $=(d v) g$

$m=d^{\prime} V$

acceleration$=\frac{\text {net force}}{m}=\frac{d V g}{d^{\prime} V}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{d \times g}{d^{\prime}}=\frac{10}{0.8}=12.5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

depth it gets sinked down$:$

$\Rightarrow(2 g \times 2)=0^{2}+2 \times g \times s$

$s=8 m$

    A spherical ball of density $\rho$ and radius $0.003$ $m$ is dropped into a tube containing a viscous fluid filled up to the $0$ $ cm$ mark as shown in the figure. Viscosity of the fluid $=$ $1.260$ $N.m^{-2}$ and its density $\rho_L=\rho/2$ $=$ $1260$ $kg.m^{-3}$. Assume the ball reaches a terminal speed by the $10$ $cm$ mark. The time taken by the ball to traverse the distance between the $10$ $cm$ and $20$ $cm$ mark is
