Evaluate \(\begin{vmatrix} cos\alpha cos\beta &cos\alpha sin\beta &-sin\alpha \\ -sin\beta&cos\beta &0 \\ sin\alpha cos\beta&sin\alpha\sin\beta &cos\alpha \end{vmatrix}\)
\(\Delta = \begin{vmatrix} cos\alpha cos\beta &cos\alpha sin\beta &-sin\alpha \\ -sin\beta&cos\beta &0 \\ sin\alpha cos\beta&sin\alpha\sin\beta &cos\alpha \end{vmatrix}\)
Expanding along C3, we have:
Δ=-sinα(-sinαsin2β-cos2βsinα)+cosα(cosαcos2β+cosαsin2β)
=sin2α(sin2β+cos2β)+cos2α(cos2β+sin2β)
=sin2α(1)+cos2α(1)

A settling chamber is used for the removal of discrete particulate matter from air with the following conditions. Horizontal velocity of air = 0.2 m/s; Temperature of air stream = 77°C; Specific gravity of particle to be removed = 2.65; Chamber length = 12 m; Chamber height = 2 m; Viscosity of air at 77°C = 2.1 × 10\(^{-5}\) kg/m·s; Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.81 m/s²; Density of air at 77°C = 1.0 kg/m³; Assume the density of water as 1000 kg/m³ and Laminar condition exists in the chamber.
The minimum size of particle that will be removed with 100% efficiency in the settling chamber (in $\mu$m is .......... (round off to one decimal place).
