Geology Question on Applied Geology
A water flow transports spherical particles (diameter = 2mm; density = 3g/cm3) in suspension mode. If additional particles of density 2g/cm3 are added into the flow, then the diameter of the particles that can be transported without a change in terminal fall velocity, using Stokes law, is _____mm. (Round off to two decimal places) (Use density of water = 1g/cm3)
Answer
The correct answer is: 2.80 or 2.84 (approx.)
