A bicyclist was moving at a rate of 8 m/s, and then sped up to 10 m/s. If the cyclist has a mass of 120 kg, how much work was ne

Answer:

Work = 2160 J

Explanation:

As per work energy theorem we know that work done is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the cyclist.

As the cyclist is initially moving at speed 8 m/s and after some time his speed changes to 10 m/s

So here we can say that

final kinetic energy - initial kinetic energy = work done

W = \frac{1}{2}m(v_f^2 - v_i^2)

now by plug in all values

W = \frac{1}{2}(120)(10^2 - 8^2)

W = 2160 J

so work done by cyclist will be 2160 J

W=∆KE

KE=1/2m∆v^2

=1/2*120*(10-8) ^2

=240j

A client with hypertension who weighs 72.4 kg is receiving an infusion of nitroprusside (Nipride) 50 mg in D5W 250 ml at 75 ml/h
Mkey [24]

To solve this problem it is necessary to simply apply the concepts related to cross-multiply and proportion between units.

Let's start first by relating the amount of dose needed to be supplied per hour, in other words,

The infusion of 250ml should be supplied at a rate of 75ml / hour, so what amount x of mg hour should be supplied with 50Mg.

\frac{x}{75ml/hour} \rightarrow \frac{50mg}{250ml}

x \rightarrow \frac{50mg*75ml/hour}{250ml}

x \rightarrow \frac{3750mg}{250hour}

x \rightarrow 15\frac{mg}{hour}

Converting to mcg units we know that 1mg is equal to 1000mcg and that 1 hour contains 60 min, therefore

x \rightarrow 15\frac{mg}{hour}

x \rightarrow 15\frac{mg}{hour}(\frac{1000mcg}{1mg})(\frac{1hour}{60min})

x \rightarrow 250mcg/min

The dose should be distributed per kilogram of the patient so if the patient weighs 72.4kg,

Dose = \frac{250mcg/min}{72.4kg}

Dose = 3.5 \frac{mcg/min}{kg}

Therefore the client will receive 3.5mcg/kg/min.
