Soil particles finer than 75 micron size cannot be sieved. The particle size distribution of such soil is determined by sedimentary analysis. In the sedimentary analysis, the soil fraction finer than 75 micron size is kept in suspension in a liquid. This analysis is based on Stokes law, according to which the velocity at which particle settles in a fluid, its velocity first increases under the action of gravity, but the drag force comes in to action, and retards the velocity.

What is the logical first step in soil analysis?
First collect your soil.
What is the placement of soil or sediment into a new area called?
sedimentation

What has the author Chester F Royse written?
Chester F Royse has written: 'An introduction to sediment analysis' -- subject(s): Sedimentation analysis
What are some effects of soil erosion?
Loss of soil productivity, river, lake, and water supply over-sedimentation , and algae blooms.
How does one perform a soil analysis?
There are many ways one can perform a soil analysis. One can perform a soil analysis by buying a soil test, getting a good sample, and filing out the attached information sheet.
A land formed by the soil the river deposits as it flows into the sea?
sedimentation
What are some of the problems cause by excessive erosion?
Water sedimentation ecosystem damage and outright loss of soil.

sedimentation and decantation
What is the logical first step in soil analysis?
First collect your soil.
How are some of the soil gradations classified?
Soil gradation is a type of classification that ranks coarse soil based on the size of its particles. Soil gradation is found by studying the results of a sieve analysis or a hydrometer analysis.
What are the applications of atomic absorption spectroscopy?
Mainly it is used for soil analysis and water analysis.
Why do you do a soil sample and analysis?
To check the acidity of the soil and to see at wat level the soil will be able to support life
