Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFVExplanation:
Settling velocity for discrete particles,
Where
S = sp. gravity of the particle
d = diameter of the particle
ν = kinematic viscosity
Calculation:
Case-1
S = 2
Case-2
S = 3
So, an increase in settling velocity is
Vs2 = 2 × Vs1
