AI Thread Summary
It is possible to recover water absorbed by a desiccant by warming it to release water vapor. This vapor can then be condensed back into liquid water. The amount of water that can be recovered depends on the quantity of desiccant used. The process involves heating the desiccant and using a condenser for collection. Overall, while recovery is feasible, the yield may be limited.

yes, you could warm up the dessicant and recover the water vapour. Put it through a condenser to get back the liquid water.
Depending on how much dessicant you are talking about ... there may not be too much to recover ?

Thread 'Is calling fictitious forces "not real" just about terminology?'

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...

Thread 'Derivation of Hamilton's Principle: Questions'

I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
