Hypothesis Alternative hypothesis: As the concentration of sodium chloride in the solution increases‚ the mass of the potato cores will decrease. If the solution they are in has a lower water potential than the potato cores‚ there will be net movement of water out of the potato cores. If the solution has a higher water potential than the potato cores‚ there will be net movement of water into

Saturable-Core Reactor (Saturable Reactor) I. Description A saturable reactor in electrical engineering is a special form of inductor where the magnetic core can be deliberately saturated by a direct electric current in a control winding. Once saturated‚ the inductance of the saturable reactor drops dramatically. This decreases inductive reactance and allows increased flow of the AC current. II. Function/Operation Figure 1. This scheme controls the output voltage by varying the impedance
