A mixture of 1-L containing water at room temperature and 100,000,000 little solid spherical beads (density of 1.2 g/mL, diameter of 0.1 mm) was shaken until all particles are dispersed in the water. After shaking, the suspension was rested and the beads slowly start to settle. determine the single particle settling velocity and the collective settling velocity of the particles in cm/s.
