The two cases mentioned stand in sharpcontrast. In the first a relative steady motion of the fluidis easily determined, satisfying all the conditions both at thesurface of the sphere and at infinity; and the force requiredto propel the sphere is found to be finite, being given by theformula (126) -F^GiTfiaY, (I) where jju is the viscosity, a the radius, and V the velocity ofthe sphere. On the other hand in the case of the cylinder,moving transversely, no such steady motion is possible. Ifwe suppose the cylinder originally
