Question
The spherical grit particles, having a radius of 0.01 mm and specific gravity of 3.0, need to be separated in a settling chamber. It is given that
g=9.81m/s²
the density of the liquid in the settling chamber = 1000kg/m
the kinematic viscosity of the liquid in the settling chamber = 105² / s
Assuming laminar conditions, the settling velocity (in mm/s, up to one decimal place) is__________
