MCQ
A particle released from rest is falling through a thick fluid under gravity. The fluid exerts a resistive force on the particle proportional to the square of its speed. Which one of the following graphs best depicts the variation of its speed $v$ with time $t$ ?
  • ✓

  • B

  • C

  • D

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

a
(a)

Velocity initially increases and this results in increase in resistive stokes force $(=6 \pi \eta r v)$.

After some time, resistive stokes force and force of buoyancy are equal to gravitational pull on the particle. After this instant velocity of particle becomes constant.

Hence, correct graph is $(a)$.
