Question 1.iii
Both functions P and Q are size and velocity independent. Heywood produced tables of log(U/Q) as a function of log(Px) and vice-versa.

Use your Heywood tables to complete the following: Particle diameter (microns): 1 10 50 100 1000 log(Px): --- --- A --- ---

The term A missing from the above is:

	a) 0.0156 b) 0.156 c) 1.56 d) 15.6
Note, don't forget to convert microns to metres in SI units.
