<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The statement is </u><u>False</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Contaminated rags may contain plastic and other materials that cannot be defused in soil and they remain there for a long period of time. Another reason to avoid disposal of contaminated material in earth is that it may also contain toxic materials which may result into land pollution. So it is not recommended to dispose contaminated rags in landfills.

an object traveling 200 feet per second slows to 50 feet per second in 5 seconds. Calculate the acceleration of the object

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is $-30\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity of object $v_i$ = 200 feet/second

Final velocity of object $v_f$ = 50 feet/second

Time of travel = 5 seconds

To calculate acceleration of the object we will find the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

So, acceleration $a$ is given by:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

where $v_f$ represents final velocity, $v_i$ represents initial velocity and $t$ is time of travel.

Plugging in values to evaluate acceleration.

$a=\frac{50-200}{5}$

$a=\frac{-150}{5}$

$a=-30\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the object is $-30\ m/s^2$ (Answer). The negative sign shows the object is slowing down.
