A ball of mass $m$ and radius $r$ is released in viscous liquid. The value of its terminal velocity is proportional to (A) $(1 / r)$ only (B) $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{r}$ (C) $(m / r)^{1 / 2}$ (D) $m$ only
A small sphere of radius ‘r’ falls from rest in a viscous liquid. As a result, heat is produced due to viscous force. The rate of production of heat when the sphere attains its terminal velocity, is proportional to
