Answer:

A

Explanation:

1 lb = .453 kg...so...103 x .453 = 46.72 kg  

you then multiply that by the force of gravity which is 9.8(m/s2)...so...  

46.72 x 9.8 = 458 newtons(kg x m/s^2), which is the force.  

pressure (in pascals) = Force(N) / Area (m2)  

we need to convert 10cm2 to m2 which = .001m^2  

458 / .001 = 458000 = 4.58 x 10^5 Pa

Options for the question;

A. 4.59 × 105 Pa

B. 4.59 × 103 Pa

C. 4.59 × 101 Pa

D. 4.59 × 10ˉ1 Pa

E. 4.59 × 10ˉ3 Pa

Answer:

Pressure = 458000 = 4.58 x 10^5 Pa; Option A

Explanation:

Bringing out the parameters in the question;

Weight = 103 lbs = 46.72 kg (Upon conversion by diving by 2.205)

Area occupied = 10.0 cm2 = 0.001m2 (Upon conversion by dividing by 10000)

Pressure = ?

The relationship between pressure and Area is given as;

Pressure (in pascals) = Force(N) / Area (m2)

Force = Mass * Gravity = 46.72 * 9.8 = 458 N

Pressure = 458 / 0.001 = 458000 = 4.58 x 10^5 Pa

What is the molarity of 4.0 moles NaCI dissolved in 2.0 L of solution
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

What is the molarity of a solution containing 5.00 moles of kcl in 2.00L of solution? Molarity= moles of solute/volume of solution in litre , so the problem looks like this : 7/. 569 , which is equivalent to 12.302 M .

A patient needs 40.0 mg of antibiotic per kilogram of body weight each day. If the patient weighs 55 kilograms.
White raven [17]

2200 mg of antibiotic

Explanation:

Given that 40 mg of antibiotic/kg of the bodyweight is given.

If patient is 55 kg then  the dose of antibiotic will be

if 40/1000000 is done then we can get antibiotic in kg/kg of the weight

= 0.00004 kg of antibiotic per kg

0.00004*55 ( to know how much 55 kg person will require)

= 0.0022 kg

This 0.0022 value will be converted to mg

0.0022*10^6

= 2200 mg of antibiotic will be given to a 55kg patient.

The rate constant for the second-order reaction: 2NOBr(g) → 2NO(g) + Br2(g) is 0.80/(M · s) at 10°C. Starting with a concentrati
a_sh-v [17]

Answer : The concentration of NOBr after 95 s is, 0.013 M

Explanation :

The integrated rate law equation for second order reaction follows:

k=\frac{1}{t}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{[A]_o}\right)

where,

k = rate constant = 0.80M^{-1}s^{-1}

t = time taken  = 95 s

[A] = concentration of substance after time 't' = ?

[A]_o = Initial concentration = 0.86 M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

0.80=\frac{1}{95}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{(0.86)}\right)

[A] = 0.013 M

Hence, the concentration of NOBr after 95 s is, 0.013 M

Under conditions of "feasting", the body favors oxidation/utilization of which source for energy production
mezya [45]
During feasting, there is an increase in the supply of carbohydrates, fats and proteins in the body. Since these macronutrients are in excess, carbohydrates and proteins are utilized or oxidized as a source for energy production. On the otherhand, fats are accumulated as the rate of oxidation of this source does not increase during feasting.
