2.(50%) A solid sphere of radius R and density ps is immersed in the center of a deep tank of incompressible fluid of viscosity " and density ρ. At time zero, the sphere is suddenly released and falls in a straight line under the action of gravity. The sphere velocity u(t) increases from zero and reaches a steadily falling terminal velocity U. The quasi-steady drag F_D acting on the sphere may be calculated by reading C_D-Re plot shown in Figure 3 where C_D is the drag coefficient and Re-2RρU/μ is the particle Reynolds number.
