The principle used to separate kerosene and water is distillation.

We know that water and kerosene are immiscible liquids. These liquids do not blend. The mixture will separate into two layers depending upon their densities. The water density is higher than the kerosene density.

So, in this funnel, the water with higher density is present in the bottom layer and kerosene has lower density present in the top layer.

The water in the bottom layer is "collected in a beaker" with the outlet in the "separating funnel". Then, the top layer (kerosene) will come to the "bottom" and it is "collected in a separate beaker".
