A gravity table deck oscillates at \( 400 \) cycles per minute with a stroke of \( 12 \) mm. The mean deck speed during a stroke is

  • A.0.16 m/s
  • B.0.08 m/s
  • C.4.8 m/s
  • D.0.02 m/s

Answer: A

Correct answer: 0.16 m/s

Each complete cycle covers the stroke twice, out and back:

\[ v = \frac{400 \times 2 \times 0.012}{60} = \frac{9.6}{60} = 0.16\ \mathrm{m/s} \]

The distractor \( 0.08 \) counts only one stroke per cycle. The oscillation does two things at once on a gravity table: it fluidises the bed in combination with the upward air, and it conveys the settled heavy fraction uphill along the deck to its outlet.
