Water is the only substance found naturally in all three states on Earth's surface.
Given below are two statements: Statement I: Electrostatic precipitator is most widely used in thermal power plants. Statement II: Electrostatic precipitator in thermal power plant removes ionising radiations. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
To solve this problem, we need to evaluate the given statements about electrostatic precipitators in thermal power plants.Statement I: Electrostatic precipitator is most widely used in thermal power plants. - Electrostatic precipitators are indeed commonly used in thermal power plants to control air pollution. - They are effective in removing particulate matter from flue gases. - Therefore, Statement I is correct.Statement II: Electrostatic precipitator in thermal power plant removes ionising radiations. - Electrostatic precipitators are designed to remove particulate matter, not ionising radiations. - Ionising radiations are typically managed through shielding and other radiation protection measures, not by electrostatic precipitators. - Therefore, Statement II is incorrect.Based on the analysis, the correct answer is:Option 3: Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.This corresponds to the correct option, which is Option 3.
