What are true statements that reflect why infants experience more fluid and electrolyte changes?

1 answer:

8 0

True statements that reflect why infants experience more fluid and electrolyte changes are that dehydration can upset the balance of electrolytes in an infant or child and the newborn is at risk of excessive water loss and hypernatremia as the result of high evaporative water loss through the skin.

As infants are not used to the environment around , they are more sensible towards problems such as Dehydration because of fast metabolism.

Dehydration can upset the balance of electrolytes in an infant or child. Children are especially vulnerable to dehydration due to their small size and fast metabolism, which causes them to replace water and electrolytes at a faster rate than adults.

Infants are particularly prone to the effects of dehydration because of their greater baseline fluid requirements (due to a higher metabolic rate), higher evaporative losses (due to a higher ratio of surface area to volume), and inability to communicate thirst or seek fluid.

The newborn is at risk of excessive water loss and hypernatremia as the result of high evaporative water loss through the skin, insensible water loss (IWL), as well as decreased capacity to concentrate the urine.

This exists in the space surrounding a charged particle and exerts a force on other charged particles.

Zinaida [17]

Gravitational field exists in the space surrounding a charged particle and exerts a force on other charged particles. Gravitational waves are ripples of waves travelling outward from the source. The more massive the orbit of two bodies, the more it emits gravitational wave. And everything around it that is near within the wave experiences a ‘pull’ toward the orbiting bodies.

After a magnetic field is applied, how many energy levels would you expect for then=3,ℓ=2 state, including electron spin?

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The energy level is 5.

Explanation:

Given that,

n = 3

l = 2

We know that,

l shows the number of sub-shells and define the number of angular nodes.

n shows the number of electron shell.

$m_{l}$ is a quantum number. It is define the number of energy level in a sub-shells .

$m_{s}$ is define the spin of the electron.

So, The quantum number is

$m_{l}=-2,-1,0,1,2$

$m_{s}$ is $+\dfrac{1}{2}$ and $-\dfrac{1}{2}$ for every energy level.

The energy level is 5.

Hence, The energy level is 5.

A simple series circuit consists of a 150 Ω resistor, a 29 V battery, a switch, and a 2.1 pF parallel-plate capacitor (initially

Rufina [12.5K]

Find the electric flux and the disp at t=0.50ns
Given: 
Resistor R = 160 Ω 
Voltage ε = 22.0 V 
Capacitor C = 3.10 pF = 3.10 * 10^-12 F 
time t = 0.5 ns = 0.5 * 10^-9 s 
ε0 = 8.85 * 10^-12 
Solution: 
ELECTRIC FLUX: 
Φ = Q/ε0 
we have ε0, we need to find Q the charge 
STEP 1: FIND Q 
Q = C ε ( 1 - e^(-t/RC) ) 
Q = { 3.10 * 10^-12 } { 22.0 } { 1 - e^(- 0.5 * 10^-9 / 160 *3.10 * 10^-12 ) } 
Q = { 3.10 * 10^-12 } { 22.0 } { 1 - 0.365 } 
Q = { 3.10 * 10^-12 } { 22.0 } { 0.635 } 
Q = 43.31 * 10^-12 C 
STEP 2: WE HAVE Q AND ε0 > >>> SOLVE FOR ELECTRIC FLUX >>> 
Φ = Q/ε0 
Φ = { 43.31 * 10^-12 C } / { ε0 = 8.85 * 10^-12 } 
Φ = 4.8937 = 4.9 V.m 
DISPLACEMENT CURRENT 
we use the following equation: 
I = { ε / R } { e^(-t/RC) } 
I = { 22 / 160 } { e^(- 0.5 * 10^-9 / 160 *3.10 * 10^-12 ) } 
I = { 0.1375 } { 0.365 } 
I = 0.0502 A = 0.05 A
