Aerodynamic force

Let's imagine that there is no atmosphere around the Earth, i.e. we exist in a vacuum. Then the raindrops would fall unhindered, and their speed would be comparable to the speed of a bullet. Umbrellas would have to be made of bulletproof materials, and all hats would have to be replaced with hard hats during the rain. Fortunately, this is not necessary. The air resists falling droplets and all other moving aerosol particles, slowing down their speed. Under certain conditions, the force of gravitational attraction, which causes the particles to settle, is balanced by the force of the resistance of the medium. In addition, when particles are found in a medium with a certain density, it is necessary to take into account Archimedes' law. The total force will be equal to the difference between the gravitational and Archimedean forces. When moving in a gaseous medium, the settling of particles is hindered by air resistance, which is characterized by a frictional force determined by Stokes' law; this force is proportional to the viscosity of the gas (air) medium, the velocity of the particles (in this case, the settling velocity) and their radius. When the velocity of the particles reaches such a magnitude that their weight is balanced by the vertical component of the friction force, their movement becomes uniform due to gravity. There are a number of calculation formulas that allow us to determine the settling rate of particles of various sizes and shapes (the shape of the vast majority of particles differs from the ideal spherical one). The larger the particles, the higher the rate of their deposition. A plume of dust that follows a car along a country road in dry weather usually disappears after a few minutes.


Meanwhile, even larger aerosol particles can be suspended for quite a long time. The insecticide dichlorodiphenyltrichloromethylmethane, which was widely used in Europe not so long ago, was found in the form of solid particles several tens of micrometers in size far from the places of use — in the snow of Antarctica and in the organisms of almost all living creatures living there. By 1980, up to 2,500 tons of this drug had accumulated in Antarctica, a significant part of which reached the continent in the form of aerosols. (By the way, we note that one of the ways to determine the age of Antarctica's ice is based on the analysis of plant particles, primarily pollen and spores, which traveled thousands of kilometers in the form of aerosols and reached a distant continent.) During the lawsuits, winds blew the soil away from a vast area, turning it into aerosols. Rather large particles, having traveled thousands of kilometers, settled in Northern China, forming fertile loess deposits in the Yellow River basin. In February 1979, residents of some areas of Yugoslavia, Austria and Poland observed the fall of unusual yellow snow.
