Question:
In Millikan's oil drop experiment, what is viscous force acting on an uncharged drop of radius $2.0 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~m}$ and density $1.2 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{kgm}^{-3}$ ? Take viscosity of liquid $=1.8 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{Nsm}^{-2}$. (Neglect buoyancy due to air).
Correct Option: , 2
Solution:
Viscous force $=$ Weight
$=\rho \times\left(\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}\right) g$
$=3.9 \times 10^{-10}$
