Question

Marty is developing a new way to heat an airplane's windshield to prevent it from accumulating ice when in flight. A thin layer of clear, conductive material is injected between two layers of thick windshield plastic. A very small electric current is run through the inner material to keep the plastic layers warm. How might using a model help Marty develop his design? A. Marty could use a model to discover a new type of plastic for windshields. B. Airplane manufacturers could be sold models to use in their new planes. C. A model could be used to test his design in a lab. D. A model could be used for automobile windshields.

Answer 1

The answer is : A model could be used to test his design in a lab.  Marty is developing a new way to heat an airplane's windshield to prevent it from accumulating ice when in flight. A thin layer of clear, conductive material is injected between two layers of thick windshield plastic. A very small electric current is run through the inner material to keep the plastic layers warm.  The model that could help Marty develop his design is the kind of model that could be used to test his design in a lab. 

Answer 2

Answer:

B) A model could be used to test his design in a lab

Explanation:

The models in a laboratory scale are used usually to  test new methods or technologies (like the one Marty is developing) to see if they work or what adjustments they required to take them to real scale.
