Answer:
Correct Answer: 12. (d)
Solution:
- (d) Power $=$ rate of production of heat $=F \cdot V$
$=6 \pi \eta r V_T \cdot V_T=6 \pi \eta r V_T^{2}$
$(\because F=6 \pi \eta V_T r.$ stoke’s formula)
$V_T \propto r^{2}$ $\because \quad V_T=\frac{2}{9} \frac{r^{2}(\rho-\sigma)}{\eta} g$
$\therefore \quad$ Power $\propto r^{5}$
