Question

what is sedimentation⁸​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Sedimentation is the tendency for particles in suspension to settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained and come to rest against a barrier. This is due to their motion through the fluid in response to the forces acting on them: these forces can be due to gravity, centrifugal acceleration, or electromagnetism. 

Answer 2

Explanation:

The process of separating insoluble substances which are heavier than liquid by allowing them to settle down on their own due to gravity is called sedimentation.
