    A table tennis ball has radius $(3 / 2) \times 10^{-2} m$ and mass $(22 / 7) \times 10^{-3} kg$. It is slowly pushed down into a swimming pool to a depth of $d=0.7 m$ below the water surface and then released from rest. It emerges from the water surface at speed $v$, without getting wet, and rises up to a height $H$. Which of the following option(s) is (are) correct?

    [Given: $\pi=22 / 7, g=10 ms ^{-2}$, density of water $=1 \times 10^3 kg m ^{-3}$, viscosity of water $=1 \times 10^{-3} Pa$-s.]

    $(A)$ The work done in pushing the ball to the depth $d$ is $0.077 J$.

    $(B)$ If we neglect the viscous force in water, then the speed $v=7 m / s$.

    $(C)$ If we neglect the viscous force in water, then the height $H=1.4 m$.

    $(D)$ The ratio of the magnitudes of the net force excluding the viscous force to the maximum viscous force in water is $500 / 9$.
