Physics

A 10-cm diameter solid metal ball falls through the air at itsterminal velocity of 39.3 m/s.

a) What would the new terminal velocity be if the mass of theball were doubled, while the diameter and all other physicalproperties of the ball remained unchanged.

b) What would the new terminal velocity be if the diameter ofthe ball were doubled, while the mass and all other physicalproperties of the ball remained the same as the original?

c) What would the terminal velocity be for a ball of the samematerial (and thus same solid density) that has twice the diameteras the original?
