What is the maximum RPM for a low-speed rotary instrument?

  1. <12,000 rpm

  2. <10,000 rpm

  3. <15,000 rpm

  4. <20,000 rpm

The correct answer is: <12,000 rpm

The maximum RPM for a low-speed rotary instrument is <12,000 rpm. This means that option A is the correct answer, as it falls within the range of low-speed rotary instruments. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they exceed the maximum RPM for low-speed instruments. Option B has a maximum of <10,000 rpm, which is lower than the correct answer. Option C and D have maximums of <15,000 rpm and <20,000 rpm, respectively, which are both higher than the maximum for low-speed instruments. Therefore, option A is the most accurate and correct answer.
