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 locomotive approaches its next stop and accelerates at -0.12 m/s^2, coming to a complete stop in 30 seconds. This motion could
Masja [62]

Answer:

<em>Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration</em>

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion</u>

Both the velocity and acceleration are vectors because they have magnitude and direction. When the motion is restricted to one dimension, i.e. left-right or up-down, the direction is marked with the sign according to some preset reference.

The locomotive is moving at a certain speed with a (so far) unknown sign but the acceleration has a negative sign. Since the locomotive comes to a complete stop it means the velocity and the acceleration are of opposite signs.

Thus the velocity is positive.

Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration

57. Example of the law of force and acceleration
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Newton's Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass (object). Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass. Your leg muscles pushing pushing on the pedals of your bicycle is the force.
