What is the true settling velocity for such a particle

Reference no: EM13312695

An old occupational hygiene rule of thumb is that a 10 micrometer (micron) silica particle settles at a rare of 1 ft/min (0.5 cm/s). What is the true settling velocity for such a particle? The density of silica is 2600 kg/cubic meter (2.6 g/cubic centimeter).
