5 Questions
Which force acts on a particle immersed in a liquid and is in the opposite direction of the gravitational force?
Lifting (Archimedes) force
What is the total force acting on a particle in a suspension, considering both the gravitational force and the lifting (Archimedes) force?
$F = F_g - F_p$
What is the expression for the gravitational force acting on a particle in a suspension?
$F_g = \rho \cdot V \cdot g$
What is the expression for the lifting (Archimedes) force acting on a particle in a suspension?
$F_p = \rho_s \cdot V \cdot g$
When the total force acting on a particle in a suspension is not zero, what will happen to the particle?
It will move at a certain speed
