"A 78-year-old woman has a mean arterial pressure of 120 mm Hg and a heart rate of 60 beats/min. She has a stroke volume of 50 m

L, cardiac output of 3000 mL/min, and a right atrial pressure of 0 mm Hg. What is the total peripheral resistance (in mm Hg/mL/min) in this woman

Answer:

0.04 mm Hg / mL / min .

Explanation:

Arterial pressure = 120 mm Hg

right atrial pressure = 0 mm Hg

Drop in pressure due to peripheral resistance = 120 mm Hg

volume of cardiac output per minute = 3000 mL/min

total  peripheral resistance

= 120 / 3000 mm Hg / mL / min

= 0.04 mm Hg / mL / min .

An electromagnet is a device in which moving electric charges (current) in a coil of wire create a magnet. What’s one advantage
docker41 [41]
Electromagnets have certain advantages over permanent magnets. One of the major advantage is, the amount of electric current can easily be controlled, in turn, magnetic field can be controlled. Out of all the options, option D would be the best answer.

In short, Your Answer would be option D) Electromagnets can easily be turned on and off.

Hope this helps!

Each rarefraction on a longitudinal wave correspond to what point on a transverse wave?
morpeh [17]
Answer: In a longitudinal wave, the crest and trough of a transverse wave correspond respectively to the compression, and the rarefaction. A compression is when the particles in the medium through which the wave is traveling are closer together than in its natural state, that is, when their density is greatest.

Why does the momentum of a billiard ball rolling on a billiard table change?
stiv31 [10]

If the billiard ball is going at the constant speed and contains its mass then the momentum WONT be changing. But realistically you have external forces like friction and air resistance changing the velocity thus changing the momentum. In this case momentum is not conserved because you're introduction an external force.

The airport has a new plane that can go from 0 miles per hour to 100 miles per hour in 10 seconds. What is being described about
Nonamiya [84]
<h3 />

<h2 /><h2 /><h2>Acceleration : </h2>

Acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as ❝ rate of change in velocity ❞

And as per the question, the plane can go from 0 miles to 100 miles/hour in 10 seconds that shows rate of change in its velocity. that is :

from 0 miles/hour to 100 miles/hour. hence Acceleration is the quantity being described about the new plane.

  • \qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a =  \dfrac{v - u}{t}

[ v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time ]

  • \qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a =  \dfrac{100 - 0}{10}

  • \qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a =  \dfrac{100}{10}

  • \qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a = 10 \:

So, the Acceleration of the new plane is 10 miles/hour²

In order to "see" something smaller than about 200 nm, an electron microscope can be used. an electron would have to be travelin
Damm [24]
<span>3640 m/s The de Broglie wavelength of a particle is expressed by the equation: λ = h/p where λ = wavelength h = Planck constant p = momentum so let's solve for momentum and the substitute the known values and calculate: λ = h/p λp = h p = h/λ p = 6.62607004x10^-34 Js/2x10^-7 m p = 6.62607004x10^-34 kg*m^2/s^2 * s/2x10^-7 m p =3.31303502x10^-27 kg*m/s Now momentum is defined as mass times velocity. And the mass of an electron is 9.10938356×10^-31 kg. So p = mv p/m = v 3.31303502x10^-27 kg*m/s / 9.10938356×10^-31 kg = v 3.63694754774384x10^3 m/s = v Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 3.64x10^3 m/s or 3640 m/s. That velocity is low enough that we don't need to worry about relativistic effects.</span>
