If the time period $$t$$ of the oscillation of a drop of liquid of density $$d$$, radius $$r$$, vibrating under surface tension $$s$$ is given by the formula $$t = \sqrt{r^{2b}s^c d^{a/2}}$$. It is observed that the time period is directly proportional to $$\sqrt{\frac{d}{s}}$$. The value of $$b$$ should therefore be :
