As the value of Aincreases, the total number of particles in each size classification increases, thus,the total number of particles in water A in each size classification is greater than inwater B.The slopeβis a measure of the relative number of particles in each size range. Thus, ifβis less than one 1, the particle size distribution is dominated by large particles, ifβisequal to one all particle sizes are represented equally, and ifβis greater the one theparticle size distribution is dominated by small particles. The particle size distribution isdominated by small particles for water A because β (2.1953) is greater than one. Allparticle sizes are represented nearly equally for water B because β (0.9903) is close toone.

Thefilter is effective in removing all sizes of particles because β for the effluent isclose to the value for the influent.
