The clearance between the solid cylinder and the pipe is filled with a Newtonian fluid of density p and u. For this clearance fluid, the terminal velocity of the cylinder is determined to be V, assuming a linear velocity profile. However, if the clearance fluid was changed to a Newtonian fluid of density 2p and viscosity 2u, then for an assumed linear velocity profile, the terminal velocity of the cylinder was determined to be V,.

Your lungs are capable of creating a vacuum pressure of 3000 Pa. (Vacuum pressure just means a pressure below that of the atmosphere, so plung = patm 3000 Pa.)
