How much will be the settling velocity of a spherical particle A (having specific gravity of 2.65) of diameter 10 x 10-3 cm? Determine the size for a floating spherical particle having a specific gravity of 0.80 (rising with the same velocity as that of particle A). Assume kinematic viscosity of water as 1.012 x 10-2 cm²/sec.
