Answer:

4.299009 pounds of fat was present in the person's body.

6.2170284 pounds of fat were removed from the patient

Explanation:

Percentage of fat in the body = 3.05 of mass

Let the amount of fat be x

Mass of the athlete = 65 kg

3.0\%=\frac{x}{65 kg}\times 100

x = 1.95 kg = 4.299009 pounds (1 kg = 2.20462 pounds)

4.299009 pounds of fat was present in the person's body.

Density of fat = 0.94 g/L

Volume of fat to be removed = V = 3.0 L = 3000 mL[/tex]

Let the mass of fat to be removed be y

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

0.94 g/mL=\frac{y}{3000 mL}

y = 2,820 g = 2.820 kg=6.2170284 pounds

6.2170284 pounds of fat were removed from the patient

1. 3.0% ----> 3.0 kg fat= 100 kg body weigh
also remember that 1 kg= 2.20 lbs

65 kg  \frac{3.0 kg}{100 kg} x  \frac{2.20 lb}{1 kg} = 4.29 lbs

2. 0.94 g/mL----> 0.94 grams= 1 mL
1 Liters= 1000 mL
1kg= 1000 grams

3 Liters  \frac{1000 mL}{1 L} x   \frac{0.94 grams}{1 mL} x  \frac{1 kg}{1000 g} x   \frac{2.20 lbs}{1 kg}  = 6.20 lbs

What is the ph of a solution that has a poh of 11.24
galina1969 [7]
Always remember that pH + pOH = 14 
Here, you have a pOH of 11.24, so  you replace it in the equation, and u get:
pH + 11.24 = 14

Then, You move 11.24 to the other part. and moving from a part to another change the sign of the equation. And you get:
pH = 14 - 11.24 = 2.76

So, the pH of a solution that has a pOH of 11.24 is pH = 2.76

Hope this Helps :)

Answer:

It helps the body remove heat through sweating.

Explanation:

When the weather is hot, the body tries to keep cool by sweating. The high specific heat capacity means that the body doesn't have to lose much water to stay cool.

The high specific heat capacity of water doesn’t heat the body, but it slows down the rate of heat loss when the weather is cool.

B is wrong. The body uses glucose, not water, as an energy source.

C is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water is not connected with the body's ability to store it.

D is wrong. The high specific heat capacity of water doesn't heat the body, but it slows the rate at which it cools.
