3. A settling basin with the dimensions shown below treats wastewater with a flowrate (Q) equal to 1 m/s. H = 2 m Q = 1 m3/s W = 1 m L = 10 m a. What is the critical settling velocity (also known as the overflow rate) for particles to be removed by this basin? b. What is the setting velocity of a particle with a diameter of 1 mm, and a density of 2 g/mL? Assume the density of water is 1 g/mL, the viscosity is 1 g/m-s, and gravitational acceleration is 9.807 m/s2 c. Will the particle in part (b) be removed by the settling basin?
