If a body is thrown with velocity u in a viscous media free from any field, then what will be terminal velocity of the body?

Answer

When a body is thrown with velocity 'u' in a viscous media free from any field, then there is no force that can keep the velocity constant against the viscous force. Hence the velocity of the body decreases to zero.
