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.

A proton that has a mass m and is moving at +164 m/s undergoes a head-on elastic collision with a stationary carbon nucleus of m
Irina18 [472]
The concept of this problem is the Law of Conservation of Momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. To obey the law, the momentum before and after collision should be equal:

m₁ v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂', where
m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the proton and the carbon nucleus, respectively,
v₁ and v₂ are the velocities of the proton and the carbon nucleus before collision, respectively,
v₁' and v₂' are the velocities of the proton and the carbon nucleus after collision, respectively,

m(164) + 12m(0) = mv₁' + 12mv₂'
164 = v₁' + 12v₂'  --> equation 1

The second equation is the coefficient of restitution, e, which is equal to 1 for perfect collision. The equation is

(v₂' - v₁')/(v₁ - v₂) = 1
(v₂' - v₁')/(164 - 0) = 1
v₂' - v₁'=164 ---> equation 2

Solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously, v₁' =  -138.77 m/s and v₂' = +25.23 m/s. This means that after the collision, the proton bounced to the left at 138.77 m/s, while the stationary carbon nucleus move to the right at 25.23 m/s.

lesya [120]

Answer:

Explanation:

The concept of elastic and inelastic demand is applied.

for an elastic demand, the elasticity must be greater than 1 and for an Inelastic demand, the elasticity must be less than 1.

The steps and appropriate calculation is as shown in the attached file.

LenKa [72]

Answer:

Sound energy is produced when an object vibrates. The sound vibrations cause waves of pressure that travel through a medium, such as air, water, wood or metal. Sound energy is a form of mechanical energy.
