AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) N. The water removed through centrifugal force in the illustrated unit is displaced from the bowl through the discharge nozzle, which is represented by the letter "N" in the illustration. The centrifugal force created by the spinning motion of the bowl separates the water from the heavier solids, and the water is then forced out through the discharge nozzle (N) while the solids remain in the bowl. The other answer choices (A, C, and D) do not correspond to the components shown in the illustration that are responsible for the discharge of the water separated by centrifugal force.
