Which substance is used to remove rust from metal?
Vlad [161]

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.

The California sea lion is capable of making extremely fast, tight turns while swimming underwater. In one study, scientists obs
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Acceleration of Sea Lion is 4.41 g

This is 49% of maximum jet acceleration given as a = 9g

Explanation:

As we know that the radius of the circular loop is given as

R = 0.37 m

The speed of the fish is given as

v = 4 m/s

Now the centripetal acceleration of the sea lion is given as

a_c = \frac{v^2}{R}

a_c = \frac{4^2}{0.37}

a_c = 43.2 m/s^2

as we know that

g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we have

a = 4.41 g

Now Percentage of this acceleration wrt maximum jet acceleration is given as

P = \frac{4.41 g}{9g} \times 100

P = 49%

The alarm at a fire station rings and a 87.5-kg fireman, starting from rest, slides down a pole to the floor below (a distance o
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

F_f=840N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Weight of fireman W_f= 87.5kg

Pole distance D=4.10m

Final speed is V_f 1.75m/s

Generally the equation for velocity is mathematically represented as

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2 a d

Therefore Acceleration a

a'= v^2 / 2 d

a'= 0.21m/s^2

Generally the equation for Frictional force F_f is mathematically given as

F_f=m*a

F_f=m*(g-0.21)

F_f=87.5*(9.81-0.21)

Therefore

F_f=840N
