Effective Weight of Particle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Effective Weight of Particle = ((4/3)*pi*(Radius of Particle)^3)*(Unit Weight of Particle-Unit Weight of Water)
W_p = ((4/3)*pi*(r_p)^3)*(γ_s-γ_w)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 4 Variables

Constants Used

pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Variables Used

Effective Weight of Particle - (Measured in Kilogram) - Effective Weight of Particle is difference between total weight and buoyancy.
Radius of Particle - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of Particle is the measure of the distance from the center of a particle to its outer surface.
Unit Weight of Particle - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Unit Weight of Particle is defined as weight per unit volume of the particle.
Unit Weight of Water - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Unit Weight of Water is the ratio of total weight to the total volume of water.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Radius of Particle: 0.005 Meter --> 0.005 Meter No Conversion Required
Unit Weight of Particle: 10 Kilonewton per Cubic Meter --> 10000 Newton per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Unit Weight of Water: 9810 Newton per Cubic Meter --> 9810 Newton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_p = ((4/3)*pi*(r_p)^3)*(γ_s-γ_w) --> ((4/3)*pi*(0.005)^3)*(10000-9810)

Evaluating ... ...

W_p = 9.94837673636768E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9.94837673636768E-05 Kilogram -->0.0994837673636768 Gram (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.0994837673636768 ≈ 0.099484 Gram <-- Effective Weight of Particle

What is unit weight of water ?

The specific weight, also known as the unit weight, is the weight per unit volume of a material. A commonly used value is the specific weight of water on Earth at 4°C, which is 9.807 kN/m3 or 62.43 lbf/ft3. The terms specific gravity, and less often specific weight, are also used for relative density.
