Consider a rain drop falling at terminal speed. For what radius of the drop can we disregard the influence of gravity on its shape? Surface tension and density of water are and respectively.

Important Questions on Surface Tension and Viscosity
A barometer contains two uniform capillaries of radii and . If the height of liquid in narrow tube is more than that in the wide tube, calculate the true pressure difference. (Given: Density of liquid , surface tension
angle of contact and .

A false statement is:





A viscous fluid is flowing through two horizontal pipes. The pressure difference between the ends of each pipe is the same. The pipes have the same radius, although one is twice as long as the other. How does the volume flow rate in the longer pipe compare with the rate in the shorter pipe?

A man is rowing a boat with a constant velocity ' ' in a river. The contact area of boat is 'A' and coefficient of viscosity is . The depth of river is ' '. Find the force required to row the boat.
