Question 54
MTNAT2 marksNeeds review
The diameter of spherical galena particles that have the same settling velocity as spherical quartz particles of diameter 25 μm (both settling in water) is _____ μm (rounded off to one decimal place).
Assume Stokes law of settling to be valid.
Given: Density of galena = 7400 kg m
, density of quartz = 2600 kg m
, density of water = 1000 kg m
