Fb
Fg = oil.Voil.g,
Where:
m = mass of water (g),
g = gravitational constant = 9.8
m/s2,
oil = density of water (g/cm3)
V = volume of oil droplet (cm3)

Rise velocity
Due to buoyant force (Fb), oil droplet is
pushed to move upward. The distance the
droplet travels in unit of time is defined as
rise velocity.
To investigate required time for oil to reach
the surface and distance travelled by the oil
in the respective time, the Stokes Equation is
employed:
Rise velocity
