Answer : The correct option is, (B) Hydrochloric acid(HCl)

Explanation :

Rust is an iron oxide, which is formed by the reaction of iron with oxygen in the presence of water.

As we know that the rust is an iron oxide (base) which is removed by an acid.

As per given options, the acid used to remove the rust from the metal is hydrochloric acid and not sulfuric acid because sulfuric acid is an oxidizing agent which oxidizes the metal more.

While the other options, ammonia and sodium hydroxide are a base.

Hence, hydrochloric acid is used to remove rust from metal.

Roller coasters accelerates from initial speed of 6.0 M/S2 final speed of 70 M/S over four seconds. What is the acceleration?

choli [55]

Answer:

$a=16\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

<u>Motion With Constant Acceleration </u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes uniformly in time.

The formula to calculate the change of velocities is:

$v_f=v_o+at$

Where:

a = acceleration

vo = initial speed

vf = final speed

t = time

The roller coaster moves from vo=6 m/s to vf=70 m/s in t=4 seconds. To calculate the acceleration, solve for a:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{70-6}{4}=\frac{64}{4}$

$\boxed{a=16\ m/s^2}$
