The doctor writes a prescription for na heparin 20,000 units in 500 ml n.s. infuse over 8 hours. what is the flow rate in ml/hr?

1 answer:

8 0

I think this type of equation could be conducted in simple division equation since it does not involve drop rate.

we know that there is 500 ml of substance and should be infused within 8 hours period.

So the flow rate in ml/hr would be:

500/8 = 62.5 ml/hr

What causes light to bend when it moves from one transport medium to another

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another is called refraction. The angle and wavelength at which the light enters a substance and the density of that substance determine how much the light is refracted. The bending occurs because light travels more slowly in a denser medium.

hope this helped :))

Jeremiah is conducting an investigation about the water cycle. He is given the following

Vlada [557]

The water cycle outlines the continuous water movement in liquid, solid and gaseous state between locations on the Earth's surface.

The glass jar represents the lake while the atmosphere is represented by the space above the water, and the sky is represented by the (clear) plastic wrap

Arrangement description and Processes;

The processes of the water cycle includes;

Evaporation;

Condensation

Precipitation

Sublimation

Runoff

Infiltration

The arrangement of the materials is as follows;

Place the glass jar (the lake) containing water and the lamp (the Sun) side by side, such that the lamp light shines on the water surface

Cover the glass jar by wrapping the plastic wrap (the sky) around it to prevent the escape of water vapor when the water is hot.

Switch on the lamp so that it heats the water by radiation heat transfer

Observed processes;

The processes demonstrated by the above experiment includes;

1) Evaporation: As the water in the glass jar becomes warmer, the level of the water in the jar can be observed to decrease slightly due to evaporation

2) Condensation: Fog formation, Clouds

When hotter, the water surface as seen through the clear plastic wrap becomes less clearer due to evaporation, and condensation of the vapor while floating above the water surface, similar to the clouds seen in the sky.

3. Precipitation: Rain;

The clear plastic wrap covering the top of the glass jar, prevents the movement of the vapor further away, such that the tiny condensed vapor gather together, to form big droplets under the plastic wrap that falls back into the jar, which is similar to the process of rainfall

The above processes are repeated as more water evaporates from the jar condenses on the plastic wrap and falls back into the jar, showing the process by which water is recycled from the lake into the atmosphere and back to the lake.

Formulating a Hypothesis: Part I Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. T

Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is said to be possessed due to the motion of the object. An object at rest will have zero kinetic energy and if it is in motion it will have some kinetic energy. The mathematical expression for kinetic energy is given by :

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times v^2$ ...........(1)

Where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of object

It is clear form expression (1) that the kinetic energy of the object is directly proportional to the mass and velocity of an object.

So, the hypothesis for the mass and kinetic energy can be written as " when the mass of the object increases, its kinetic energy also increases because there exists a direct relationship between the mass and the kinetic energy of the object".

Small rockets are used to make small adjustments in the speed of satellites. One such rocket has a thrust of 42 N. If it is fire

Over [174]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Newton's second law that relates force as the product between acceleration and mass. From there, we will get the acceleration. Finally, through the cinematic equations of motion we will find the time required by the object.

If the Force (F) is 42N on an object of mass (m) of 83000kg we have that the acceleration would be by Newton's second law.

$F = ma \rightarrow a = \frac{F}{m}$
