Consider a spherical particle 4 microns in diameter with a density of 3,000 kg/cm 3 falling through
Question:
Consider a spherical particle 4 microns in diameter with a density of 3,000 kg/cm3 falling through water of 0.001 N-s/m2 viscosity. At 10–5 s, what is the particle velocity? Confirm that the particle is in the Stokes’ law range. Assume the particle is at its terminal velocity.
Step by Step Answer:
The calculation of the terminal velocity for a spherical particle falling through a viscous medium at constant acceleration can be thought of as the b...View the full answer
