Transcribed Image Text:Problem 1 (Free Settling of Sphere)
A small spherical marble, 1 cm in diameter and weighing 1.5 g, is sinking slowly in a calm lake,
2.5 km deep. How long will it take to reach the bottom of the lake? Assume that the marble will
not encounter any obstruction as it falls down the lake floor and immediately reaches the terminal
velocity upon dropping. Also, lake water can be assumed to be pure at 20 °C. The density of water
at this temperature is 998.21 kg/m³ and its viscosity is 1.002 cP. Express your answer in hours and
three significant figures.
