Find the settling velocity of a 20 microm diameter particle


Find the settling velocity of a 20 µm diameter particle with density 1500 kg/m3. If this particle had been hurled to a height of 8,000 m during a volcanic eruption, estimate the time required to reach the ground (sea level). You many assume that the viscosity of air does not change enough to worry about. If winds average 10 m/ s, how far away would it blow on its way down?
