Answer:

more rapidly

Step-by-step explanation:

Density of a substance refers to the mass of that substance in relation to one unit of its volume. The density of a substance is the basis of whether such substance will float or sink in a liquid. This means that if the density of an object is higher than that of a liquid medium e.g water, the object will SINK while if the density of the object is lower in relation to the liquid medium, the object will FLOAT.

According to this question involving a rounded particle. If the rounded particle is of low density than water, it will float. However, if the rounded particle of the same size is of HIGH density than water, it will SINK MORE RAPIDLY.
