For spherical particles greater than approximately 1 [micron] in diameter, Stokes' law applies, [in an equation] where (nu] is the settling velocity in cm/sec; g is the acceleration of gravity in cm/sec2; d is the diameter of the particle in cm; [rho 1] is the density of the particle in g/cm3; [rho 2] is the density of air in g/cm3; and [êta] is the viscosity of air in poise. If the particle is nonspherical, Stokes' law is useful in expressing an effective diameter. 1, record 1, English, - particle%20density

Des nombreuses études menées, on retiendra un critère relativement simple pour obtenir un échantillonnage avec une erreur inférieure à 10%. [Ce critère se présente sous forme d'une équation] avec d et [rho] respectivement le diamètre et la masse volumique de la particule, [êta] la viscosité du gaz, g l'accélération de la pesanteur et Ds le diamètre d'entrée de la sonde. 2, record 1, French, - masse%20volumique%20d%27une%20particule
