An order is given to administer methylprednisolone, an anti-inflammatory drug, by IV at a rate of 39 mg every 30 min. The IV bag

contains 125 mg of methylprednisolone in every 2 mL. What should the flow rate be in milliliters per minute (mL/min)? flow rate=_______ mL/min

Answer:

The Flow rate = 0.0208 mL/min

Explanation:

Data provided:

Rate of dose = 39 mg every 30 min = (39/30) mg/min  = 1.3 mg/min

also,

125mg of methylprednisolone is present in every 2 mL

thus,

concentration = (125/2) mg/mL = 62.5 mg/mL

Now,

The flow rate is given as:

Flow rate = Rate / Concentration

on substituting the respective values, we get

Flow rate = (1.3 mg/min) / (62.5mg/mL)

or

The Flow rate = 0.0208 mL/min

Calculate the wavelength of a football (425g) thrown by an NFL quarterback traveling at 50mph
AnnyKZ [126]

Wavelength is 6.976 x 10^ -35 m

Explanation:

In this, we can use De Broglie’s equation. This equation is the relationship between De Broglie’s wavelength, velocity and the mass of a moving object. In this equation, we are using plank's constant which is 6.626 x 10^-34 m^2 kg/s.

We know that one mile per hour is equivalent to 0.447 M/S.

And One gram is equivalent to 10^-3 kg.

De Broglie’s wavelength = λ ( wave length) = Plank’s constant/ Mass x velocity

λ ( wave length) = 6.626 x 10^ -34/ (425 x10^-3) x ( 50 x 0.447)

                                 = 6.626 x 10^ -34/ 0. 425 x 22.35

                                 = 6.626 x 10^ -34/ 9.498

                                 = 6.976 x10^ -35 m

So, the wavelength of the football will be 6.976 x 10^ -35 m
