Problem (1)
A spherical particle in a settling tank has a diameter of 100 micron and a specific gravity of 2.3 in water at (:0.009cm2sec}?. Calculate its terminal settling velocity (VS) in cmsec. Calculate the Brownian motion velocity (VB) in cmsec and compare between VS and VB and indicate if the particle will settle or undergo a Brownian motion, ),x=1cm,T=298K=1.3810-16gmcm2sec2K,1 micron =10-6m=10-4cm
