An object with a mass of m = 12.0 g is falling through a resistive fluid in which g is constant. The retarding frictional force due to the fluid is F = bv, where F is the force in newtons, b is a constant, and v is the speed in meters per second. If F = 3.2 10-2 N when v = 16.0 m/s, the terminal speed of the object falling through the fluid is A) 0.12 m/s B) 59 m/s C) 0.19 km/s D) 16.0 m/s E) None of these is correct.
