Two small spherical metal balls, having equal masses, are made from materials of densities \(\rho_1\) and \(\rho_2\) such that ρ1=8ρ2 and having radii of \(1\) mm and \(2\) mm, respectively. They are made to fall vertically (from rest) in a viscous medium whose coefficient of viscosity equals η and whose density is \(0.1\)ρ2. The ratio of their terminal velocities would be:

1. 7972 2. 1936
3. 3972 4. 7936

Water rises to height h in a capillary tube. If the length of the capillary tube above the surface of water is made less than h, then:

1. water does not rise at all.
2. water rises up to the top of the capillary tube, then starts overflowing like a fountain.
3. water rises up to the top of the capillary tube and stays there without overflowing.
4. water rises up to a point a little below the top and stays there.

Small droplets of liquid are usually more spherical in shape than the larger drops of the same liquid because:

1. the force of surface tension is equal and opposite to the force of gravity.
2. the force of surface tension predominates the force of gravity.
3. the force of gravity predominates the force of surface tension.
4. the force of gravity and the force of surface tension act in the same direction and are equal.
