The minimum necessary height of the IV bag above the position of the needle is 0.37 m.

<h3>Minimum necessary height</h3>

The minimum necessary height of the IV bag above the position of the needle is calculated as follows;

P = ρgh

where;

  • ρ is density = 1.308 kg/L = 1308 kg/m³
  • g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
  • p is pressure = 35.7 mmHg = 4759.609 Pa
  • h is height, (m) = ?

Substitute the given parameters and solve for minimum height

h = P/ρg

h = (4759.609) / (9.8 x 1308)

h = 0.37 m

Thus, the minimum necessary height of the IV bag above the position of the needle is 0.37 m.

You are observing the radiation from a distant active galaxy and you notice that the amplitude of the signal varies in strength
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Period of the signal.

Explanation:

So, this question is all about a concept in physics or astronomy which is called or known as Radiation Astronomy and Galactic Nuclei that are active. This concept talks most about Quasars; a powerful radiating object which derives its power from black holes.

When You take a look at Quasars, we get the to know that the more you think you can see, the more they move away from us.

Thus, when "You are observing the radiation from a distant active galaxy and you notice that the amplitude of the signal varies in strength regularly over a certain period. The maximum possible size for the source of this radiation can now be calculated from the "PERIOD OF THE SIGNAL.

NB: not the amplitude but the period.

Determine the focal length of a plano-concave lens (refractive index n =1.5) with 24 cm radius of curvature on its curve surface
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Option 3: -48 cm

Explanation:

We are given:

refractive index; n = 1.5

radius of curvature; r2 = 24 cm

Formula for the focal length is given as;

1/f = (n - 1) × [(1/r1) - (1/r2)]

As r1 tends to infinity, 1/r1 = 0

Thus,we now have;

1/f = (n - 1) × (-1/r2)

Plugging in the relevant values;

1/f = (1.5 - 1) × (-1/24)

1/f = -0.02083333333

f = -1/0.02083333333

f = -48 cm
