Question
Assertion : Terminal velocity is same as the critical velocity.
Reason : The constant velocity of fall of a body through a viscous fluid is called terminal velocity.

Answer

(e) Terminal velocity and critical velocity are not same. Critical velocity is the velocity below which the flow of liquid is streamline.
