4. What material passes through a hole of a strainer when sieving

grigory [225]

Answer:

Explanation:

A strainer is a device that is used to remove foreign/specific "dirt" from a liquid (usually when flowing). Strainers usually have holes just like a sieve except that this time, it separates dirt (tiny solids) from the liquid unlike a sieve that separates solid particles of different sizes.

It should however be noted that sometimes the strainer is designed to remove a valuable "dirt" from the flowing liquid.
