Settling Velocity for Organic Matter Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Settling Velocity of Organic Solids = 0.12*Diameter of Particle*((3*Temperature)+70)
v_s(o) = 0.12*D_p*((3*T)+70)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Settling Velocity of Organic Solids - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling Velocity of Organic Solids is the velocity by which organic solids will settle.
Diameter of Particle - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Particle is the measurement of the size of individual particles in a soil or sediment sample.
Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Temperature is the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Diameter of Particle: 0.01 Meter --> 0.01 Meter No Conversion Required
Temperature: 85 Kelvin --> 85 Kelvin No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

v_s(o) = 0.12*D_p*((3*T)+70) --> 0.12*0.01*((3*85)+70)

Evaluating ... ...

v_s(o) = 0.39

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.39 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.39 Meter per Second <-- Settling Velocity of Organic Solids

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
