Text solutionVerified

p= mv
where p = momentum
m = mass
v = velocity

M a ss = d e n s i t y \times r^{3}

M a ss \propto r^{3}

Now, terminal velocity is:

v = \frac{2}{9} r^{2} g \frac{( d _{2} - d _{l} )}{n}

where
r = radius of oil drop
g = acceleration due to gravity

d_{1}

= density of body

d_{2}

= density of medium

Hence,

v \propto r^{2}

As p = m v and

m \propto r^{3}, v \propto r^{2}

Therefore

p \propto r^{5}

Hence

\frac{p _{1}}{p _{2}} = \frac{( r _{1} ) ^{5}}{( r _{2} ) ^{5}}

Now

r_{2} = 2 r_{1}

\frac{p _{1}}{p _{2}} = \frac{( r _{1} ) ^{5}}{( 2 r _{1} ) ^{5}}

\frac{p _{1}}{p _{2}} = \frac{1}{32}
