"To completely close off the trachea , three times as much pressure (33 lbs.) is required. If strangulation persists, brain death will occur in 4 to 5 minutes.

Choking causes acquired brain injuries by depriving the brain of oxygen. There are a number of situations that can lead to choking and an ABI. These include: Food becoming lodged in the throat, etc.

Common Causes of Choking-

  • eating or drinking too quickly.
  • swallowing food before it has been sufficiently chewed.
  • swallowing small bones or objects.
  • inhaling small objects.

For food that is stuck in the throat or the food-pipe, you can try drinking some water to see if it can move down. However, if it is a bone that is stuck in the throat, do not attempt to remove it by yourself".

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Size of the court

Explanation:

In the game of tennis, there could be a singles match typically involving just two players, or a doubles tennis which involves four players. The rule modified for the doubles tennis is that a wider court is used since there are more players involved.

Each player can serve the tennis after the fourth game. The server and receiver can stand at any side of the court even though it is ideal that they maintain one side.

4. A room 6 m long, 4 m wide is
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Width of verandah = 1 m

Area of path = 234m²

Explanation:

Dimension of room :

6m by 4m

(6m * 4m) = 24m²

(6 + 2x)(4 + 2x) - 24 = 24

24 + 12x + 8x + 4x² - 24 = 24

4x² + 20x = 24

4x² + 20x - 24 = 0

x² + 5x - 6 = 0

x² + 6x - x - 6 = 0

x(x + 6) -1(x + 6) = 0

(x + 6) = 0 or (x - 1) = 0

x = - 6 or x = 1

x can't be negative, hence x = 1

B.)

Dimension of garden :

18 m by 15 m

Area of garden = 18 m * 15 m = 270 m²

Width of path which surrounds garden = 3m

Hence, dimension of path :

Area of garden and path

(18 +3 + 3)m by (15+3 + 3)m

24m by 21m

Area of path and garden = area of rectangle

Area of rectangle = Length * width

Area of rectangle = 24m * 21m

Aewa of path and garden = 504m²

.

Area of path :

Area of path and garden - Area of garden

504m² - 270m²

= 234m²
