Question
Assuming that the specific gravity of the following substances is approximately the same, that is, 2.65, and that the water is at 20°C, calculate the time it will take to settle 1m of the following materials:
a) Gravel (Dp=10,000 μm) in seconds
I want help with this one, I did the problem but the time gave me 36.36 seconds and the Dr told me that the result is incorrect, I would like to know how to do it.
I used the formula of V=Dp^2(g)(△p) / 18μ ; Then use a substitution to calculate the time which would be t=h/v

- Problem 1: Reynold's number One can has your teeth cleaned professionally using a rotating brush or with a jet stream of a baking soda slurry. For baking soda slurries, the dentist uses a device similar to the device shown in HD Figure 8.24 to remove plaque. The fluid used in the device is a baking soda slurry. Baking soda slurry is 3.0% baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) in water, where 0.90% is the saturation limited of baking soda in water. If the inlet velocity is 0.24 m/s with inlet diameter of 5.4 mm at 23°C. The nozzle tip has a diameter of 0.51 mm. Assume no frictional effects. See page 4 for sodium bicarbonate-viscosity graph. State any other assumption needed. FIGURE 8.24 Inlet Flow Outlet Flow A. What is the Reynold's number for the fluid entering the device? B. Is the flow laminar or turbulent? C.

They want you to determine if this skydive will be safe by determining the terminal velocity that they will reach on their dive. Our daredevil really wants to go on this trip so they have done some measurements for you! The mass of the person is 75 kg, their projected area (chest-first) is 0.70 m² and their drag coefficient in this orientation is 1.05. The air density of Mars is 0.015 kg/m³ and the gravity on Mars is 38% of Earth's gravity. What is the terminal velocity (in miles per hour) of the person in their skydive descent to Mars' surface?
