Sorting classifiers employing differential settling methods for separation of particles make use of the differences in their_________________?

Correct answer: C. Terminal velocities

  • A. Particle sizes
  • B. Densities
  • C. Terminal velocities
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Differential settling separates particles according to their terminal settling velocities, which depend mainly on particle size, density, shape, and fluid properties. Thus terminal velocity is the direct basis of classification.
