Corona discharge is related to the operation of a/an_______________________?

Correct answer: B. Electrostatic precipitator

  • A. Induction motor
  • B. Electrostatic precipitator
  • C. Fast breeder reactor
  • D. Magneto hydrodynamic generator (MHD)

Explanation

An electrostatic precipitator creates corona discharge to charge suspended dust particles, which are then attracted to oppositely charged collecting plates. This electrical charging and collection principle is not the operating principle of an induction motor or reactor.
