A solid sphere, of radius $R$ acquires a terminal velocity $\nu_1 $ when falling (due to gravity) through a viscous fluid having a coefficient of viscosity $\eta $. The sphere is broken into $27$ identical solid spheres. If each of these spheres acquires a terminal velocity, $\nu_2$, when falling through the same fluid, the ratio $(\nu_1/\nu_2)$ equals
