In a falling-sphere viscometer, the terminal speed is found by timing the ball between:
ATwo marks on the tube
BRelease and impact
CTwo bounces at the base
DTwo ripples on top
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Two marks on the tube
The ball's steady speed is measured from the time it takes to pass two marks on the glass tube.
