Question

the rate of sedimentation is expressed by​

Answer 1

Answer:

The sedimentation velocity of a given particle is then expressed as a function of its density ρp and its Stokes' diameter ds by the following relationship: (6)

Answer 2

The rate of sedimentation is expressed by​ Stoke's Law.

• Stoke's Law is a mathematical equation that describes how small spherical particles settle in a fluid medium.
• The law is developed by considering the forces acting on a particle as it sinks through a liquid column under gravity's influence.
• The force that slows a sphere traveling through a viscous fluid is proportional to the sphere's velocity, radius, and viscosity.
