Question 1 • AZ-Physical Science A-CR

Natasha is looking for a material to make tires for a new jogging stroller she designed. Which would be best suited to her product?

Answer
A
polystyrene foam
B
nylon
C
polyethylene
D
vulcanized rubber

Explanation

Tires need a material that is flexible, durable, and resistant to wear. Vulcanized rubber has these properties, making it well suited for stroller tires. Polystyrene foam is too soft and fragile, while nylon and polyethylene are plastics that are not as suitable for a tire’s grip and repeated flexing.
