For crushing of solids, the Rittinger's law states that the work required for crushing is proportional to __________________?
Correct answer: D. The new surface created
- A. None of these
- B. The size reduction ratio
- C. The change in volume due to crushing
- D. The new surface created
Explanation
Rittinger's law applies mainly to fine-size reduction, where the energy is proportional to the new surface area created. This differs from Kick's law, which relates work to the size-reduction ratio.
