drops of water, each of radius 2 mm, fall through air at a terminal velocity of 8 cm/s. If they coalesce to form a single drop, the terminal velocity of the combined drop is 32 cm/s. The value of is

Answer: 8

Solution

Terminal velocity (Stokes' law), and volume conservation on coalescence gives . So
