A spherical solid ball of volume V is made of a material of density ρ1. It is falling through a liquid of density ρ2 (ρ2 < ρ1). Assume that the liquid applies a viscous force on the ball that is proportional to the square of its speed v, i.e., `"F"_"viscous"`= -kv2 (k > 0). The terminal speed of the ball is ______.
