Pulverised coal passing through 200 mesh screen has a diameter of 0.074 mm (74 micron). The same passing through 50 mesh screen will have a dia of ____________ mm?

Correct answer: B. 0.30

  • A. 0.007
  • B. 0.30
  • C. 50
  • D. 0.014

Explanation

A 50-mesh opening is approximately 0.30 mm, whereas a 200-mesh opening is about 0.074 mm. The coarser 50-mesh screen therefore permits particles of roughly 0.30 mm to pass.
