How does particle size affect permeability and porosity and capillarity in aquifers?
Percolation is the amount of water that enters soil during a given timeframe. Different soil types have different rates and the size of the particle affect how quickly the water will penetrate the water.
What 4 things affect how fast a substance dissolve?
The particle size,temperature and agitation affect the rate at which a substance will disolve in a solution.
What is the formula of mean particle size?
Mean particle size=0.94*Lambda/(FWHM*cos(theta)
What is the relationship between porosity bulk density and particle density?
If you were to graph particle size and porosity, it would be a constant slope (horizontal line).Porosity is not affected by particle size.
What is the particle size of gneiss?
1cm
What happens to capillarity as particle size increases?
As particle size in increases, capillarity decreases
How does particle size effect capillarity?
As long as the spaces between the particles are connected, the smaller the particles, the higher the capillarity. The larger the particles, the lower the capillarity.Particle size and capillarity are inversely, or negatively related.
Which property of loose earth materials most likely increases as particle size decreases?
capillarity
How does particle size affect permeability and porosity and capillarity in aquifers?
Percolation is the amount of water that enters soil during a given timeframe. Different soil types have different rates and the size of the particle affect how quickly the water will penetrate the water.
How particle size affect solubility?
Particle size affects solubility. When particle size is small, the surface area per unit volume is larger, thus the solubility is increased.
How does soil particle size affect drainage?
The bigger the particle size, the more drainage the soil would have. The smaller the particle sizer, the less drainage the soil would have. ITS EASY
Explain how soil particle size would affect infiltration during a period of heavy rain?
Size matters
How does the speed of wind affect sediment?
The higher the wind speed, the bigger the particle size.
Suppose you were dissolving a metal such as zinc with hcl. How would the particle size of the zinc affect the rate of its dissolution?
The bigger the particle the lesser the dissolution.
What is the difference between particle size and crystallite size?
crystallite is the average size of the particle whereas the particle size denotes the individual size of the particle.
How do particle size and density affect the look of dry stream beds?
the deepest will be at the very bottom
Explain the relationship between particle size and percolation rate?
Smaller particle sizes generally result in faster percolation rates because there is less resistance to the flow of liquids through the smaller spaces between the particles. Larger particles create more void spaces and can slow down the percolation rate as the liquid has to travel through these larger spaces. Therefore, finer particles allow liquid to flow more quickly compared to coarser particles.
