A small metal sphere of radius $r$ and density $ρ$ falls from rest from a viscous fluid of density $σ$ and of the coefficient of viscosity $η$ . Due to friction, heat is produced. The expression for the rate of production of heat when the sphere has acquired the terminal velocity :

[\frac{8 ρ g}{27 η} (ρ - σ)_{2}] r_{5}

[\frac{8 ρ g _{2}}{27 η} (ρ - σ)_{2}] r_{5}

[\frac{8 ρ g _{2}}{27 η} (ρ - σ)] r_{5}

None of these
