    Eight equal drops are falling through air each with a steady velocity of 5 cm/s. If the drops coalesce, the terminal velocity of the new drop will be

    A)  10 cm/s           

    B)      15 cm/s          

    C)       20 cm/s            

    D)       40 cm/s

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    According to the problem \[8\times \frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}=\frac{4}{3}\pi {{R}^{3}}\]or \[R=2r\] Now, \[{{v}_{1}}\propto {{r}^{2}}\] Since the radius becomes twice, \[\therefore \]The terminal velocity becomes 4 times or 20 m/s. Hence, the correction option is [c].
