Spherical particles of pollen are shaken...

Spherical particles of pollen are shaken up in water and allowed to settle. The depth of water is `2xx10^(-2)m`. What is the diameter of the largest particles remaining in suspension one hour later? Density of pollen `=1.8xx10^(3)kgm^(-3)` viscosity of water `=1xx10^(-2)` poise and density of water `=1xx10^(-3)kgm^(-3)`

To solve the problem of determining the diameter of the largest pollen particles remaining in suspension after one hour, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We need to find the diameter of the largest pollen particles that can remain suspended in water for one hour. We are given the depth of the water, the density of the pollen, the viscosity of water, and the density of water. ### Step 2: Write the Formula for Terminal Velocity The terminal velocity \( V_t \) of a spherical particle in a fluid can be expressed using Stokes' law: \[ ...
