Mechanical Engineering > GATE 2022 SET-1 > Drag and Buoyancy
A solid spherical bead of lead (uniform density = 11000 kg/m3) of diameter d = 0.1 mm sinks with a constant velocity V in a large stagnant pool of a liquid (dynamic viscosity = 1.1 × 10-3 kg⋅m-1⋅s-1). The coefficient of drag is given by CD = 24/Re, where the Reynolds number (Re) is defined on the basis of the diameter of the bead. The drag force acting on the bead is expressed as D = (CD)(0.5ρV2)(π D2/4), where ρ is the density of the liquid. 1 Neglect the buoyancy force. Using g = 10 m/s2, the velocity V is __________ m/s.
A
1/24
B
1/6
C
1/18
D
1/12

Correct : c
