A{'text': '15 times in about 15 seconds', 'label': 'A'}
B{'text': '5 times in about 5 seconds', 'label': 'B'}
C{'text': '10 times in about 30 seconds', 'label': 'C'}
D{'text': '3 times in about 15 seconds', 'label': 'D'}
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. {'text': '15 times in about 15 seconds', 'label': 'A'}
1. §5.4.4(c): 'Using the mechanism fitted in the table, raise and drop the table through a height 12.5 mm at the rate of 15 times in about 15 seconds.'
2. After the drops the spread is measured and averaged in six directions to the nearest 5 mm.
