✍ It is the constant velocity acquired by the body when it freely falls in the viscous medium.
✍ When a spherical body falls freely under gravity through a viscous medium, the body carries the liquid layer which is in contact with it.
✍ But the liquid layer which is at large distance from the body is at rest. Thus, there is relative motion between the layers of the liquid.
✍ Viscous force opposes this relative Motion. This viscous force increases with the increase in velocity of the body and at a certain stage it become equal to the driving force (Force of gravity).
✍ Then the body requires a constant velocity called the Terminal velocity.
✍ The Terminal Velocity of the body depends on its weight, size, shape and viscosity of the medium
