because the surface area of the larger particles propels them faster which has a recipical effect on the water around the particles
It means that the shape of the object doesn't fit into a small list of predefined shapes (for which simple formulae for volume and surface area are known). Such a list may typically include shapes like spheres, rectangular boxes, cylinders, pyramids, cones, certain sections (cutouts) of the previous ones, etc.
