Question

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)

A manufacturing company is trying to produce a lightweight but strong cart for use by home gardeners. Which metal—titanium (Ti), iron (Fe), or zinc (Zn)—would be the best for this application and why?

Answer 1

Titanium would be the best metal for this application because it is a low density metal that is still strong and ductile

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Titanium; lowest density

Step-by-step explanation:

The cart would use the same volume of metal, no matter which one it was made of.

If weight were the only consideration, the company would choose the metal with the lowest density.

The values I find for the metals are

Ti 4.5 g/cm³

Fe 7.9 g/cm³

Zn 7.1 g/cm³

Titanium would be the best metal for this application.
