Question

For automobile engines, identify the best choice of motor oil.

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Low viscosity for Maine in the winter and high viscosity for Florida in the summer.

Explanation:

The choice of motor oil or engine oil depends on the type of engine and also on the type of climate on which the engine runs.

In winter climates, we should use oil with low viscosity as at lower temperatures, the it flows more readily if its viscosity is low.

But the summer season needs a relatively thicker oil so as to reduce the thinning effect of the oil out of the engine.

Thus for Maine in the winter season, we need a low viscosity oil and for Florida a high viscosity oil in the summer season.

Therefore, option (c) is correct.
