(a) Bead A has the larger radius because both have the same weight and drag force. Since A takes longer to fall, its speed is less and, therefore, it must have larger area or radius.

(b) i. This equation is not consistent because it shows that the bead that took longer to fall has a smaller radius. ii. It does not make sense because r is proportional to t.

(c)

The figure is a plot of r as a function of t. The plot is a straight line through the origin with a positive slope.
