13. Free settling of sludge is 0.25 cm/min. Using an original height of 25 cm, the sludge settled to height of 18 cm after the free-settling period. The sludge was found to settle to a height of 10 cm after 110 min. This particular sludge was found to settle completely to a height of 4 cm. The time to settle to a height of 1/5 of its original height in a cylindrical tank whose diameter is 85% of its depth if it is 85% full and consider 1000 cu ft of sludge in the tank is a. 62.4 hours b. 54.2 hours c. 46.2 hours d. 65.4 hours
