At low Reynold's number, the power (P) required for agitating a fluid in a stirred tank becomes independent of inertial forces. In this limit, indicate which of the following relations is satisfied:
Po = ρ/ρN3 D5 : Power number
Re = ρ N D2/μ: Reynold's number
N is the impeller rotational speed, and D is the impeller diameter.
Po ∝ Re-1.0
Po ∝ Re0.0
Po ∝ Re0.5
Po ∝ Re1.0

Rittinger's crushing law states that
work required to form a particle of any size is proportional to the square of the surface to volume ratio of the product.
work required to form a particle of a particular size is proportional to the square root of the surface to volume ratio of the product.
work required in crushing is proportional to the new surface created.
for a given machine and feed, crushing efficiency is dependent on the size of the feed & product.
