A metallic spherical particle of density 7001 kg m−3 and diameter 1 mm is settling steadily due to gravity in a stagnant gas of density 1 kg m−3 and viscosity 10−5 kg m−1 s−1. Take g = 9.8 m s−2. Assume that the settling occurs in the regime where the drag coefficient CD is independent of the Reynolds number, and equals 0.44. The terminal settling velocity of the particle, in m s−1, rounded off to 2 decimal places, is ______

Correct : -294.3
