Question

An Object moving in a liquid experiences a linear drag force: D= (bv, direction opposite the motion), where b is constant called the drag coefficient. For a sphere of radius R, the drag constant can be computed as b = 6πηR, where η is the viscosity of the liquid.
a. Use what you've learned in calculus to prove that
ax= vx . dvx/dx
b. Find an algebraic expression for , Vx (x) the x-component of velocity as a funtion of distance traveled, for a spherical particle of radius R and mass m that is shot horizontally with initial speed Vo through a liquid viscosity η.
c. Water at 20°C has viscosity η= 1.0 x 10^-3 Ns/m^2.Suppose a 1.0-cm-diameter, 1.0 g marble is shot horizontally into a tank of 20°C water at 10 cm/s. How far will it travel before stopping?
