Find the settling velocity of an 8 μm diameter particle with density 1500 kg/m3. If this particle had been hurled to a height of 7000 m during a volcanic eruption, estimate the time required to reach the ground (at sea level). You may assume that the viscosity of air does not change enough with altitude to be important. If winds average 8.0 m/s, how far away (horizontally) would it travel on its way down?

One way of characterizing particles in water is to measure their sedimentation velocity. A given particle is observed to have a terminal settling velocity of 0.04 m/s in water at room temperature. If the particle diameter is measured to be 0.015 cm (perhaps by microscopic estimation), determine the density of the particle. You may assume the particle is spherical.

Magnetism 1. (4) An unknown particle travelling at a velocity of 2.20x106 m/s to the right as seen by an observer, enters a region that has an electric field of magnitude 750 V/m pointed away from the observer. Ignore gravity for this question. (a) What is the direction and magnitude of the perpendicular magnetic field which would best cancel out the effect of the electric field so that the particle passes through undeflected? (b) If while travelling 0.200 m, with...
