How is a lubricant drop be broken into finer droplets of a mist ? a. By increasing its kinetic energy by vibrating it at high frequency b. By placing the drop into a zone of low pressure which is less than the internal pressure of the drop, generated by a venturi. c. By evaporating the drop into molecular form by reducing its pressure. d. By placing the drop into a highly turbulent zone such that a number of air jets blown onto it shears it into fine droplets of a mist.
