<u>Answer:</u> The amount of drug that must be given is 102.3 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Weight of the person = 150.0 lb

Converting this weight into kilograms, we use the conversion factor:

1 kg = 2.20 lb

So, 150.0lb\times (\frac{1kg}{2.20lb})=68.2kg

Applying unitary method:

For 1 kg of body weight, the correct dosage of the drug is 1.50 mg

So, for 68.2 kg of body weight, the correct dosage of the drug will be \frac{1.50mg}{1kg}\times 68.2kg=102.3mg

Hence, the amount of drug that must be given is 102.3 grams

The moment of inertia in angular kinematics or kinetics corresponds to mass in linear kinematics or kinetics.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

<u>Rotational and linear motions are analogous to each other.</u>

<u>The inertia of a body in a linear motion is its mass.</u> This can be seen from Newton's second law of thermodynamics:

F = ma

The larger the value of the force, the larger the inertia is (m) and the slower it accelerates.

<u>The inertia of a body in a rotational body is it moment of inertia (I).</u> Both I and m are same but I depends on both the shape and mass of the rotating body.

For example, The inertia of a solid disk with mass M and radius R is:

I=\frac {1}{2}\times MR^2

Hence, the statement is true.

Air flows from the larynx to the trachea, then enters the
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The answer is B: left and right main bronchi.

Explanation:

The air enters the lungs through the nose and mouth, initially passing through the pharynx, from there the air passes through the epiglottis to reach the larynx (where the vocal cords meet); then continue to the trachea, which is divided into 2 tubes in its lower part, called right and left bronchial (primary bronchi). It ends up in even smaller tubes called bronchioles, as thin as a hair and finally ending, in the alveoli, where the gas exchange occurs.
