A glass ball with a diameter of 4.0 mm falls in a glycerol solution (po = 1.21 103 kg/m3, y = 5.02 10-2 Pa s). Glass density p=2.53·103 kg/m3. Determine the steady speed and initial acceleration. Approximately estimate the time during which the ball will reach a steady speed, and the movement of the ball during this time.
