Answer: 3.75 mg

Explanation:

We need a dose of 2.50 mg per square meter of BSA, and we also know that the BSA of the child is 1.50 m^2, then if the dosage should be 2.50mg for one m^2, for 1,5 m^2 we should administrate an amount of:

D = 1.5 m^2*(2.50mg/m^2) = 1.5*2.5 mg = 3.75 mg

Serjik [45]

Answer:

The answer for this is Green Rectangle.

Explanation:

The hue after effects theory suggests that as you glance away at a white background, you can see a <em>Green Rectangle</em> after looking at a bright red rectangle for a period of time.

All this is an after-image consequence. Afterimage is a form of optical illusion in which, even after exposure to the original image has ended, an picture appears to appear momentarily.

A car travels a distance of 100 km. For the first 30 minutes it is driven at a constant speed of 80 km/hr. The motor begins to v
gregori [183]

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the distance traveled by the car in the first 30 minutes, d_{\frac{1}{2}}.

Notice that the unit measurement for speed, in this case, is km/hr. Thus, a unit conversion of from minutes into hours is required before proceeding with the calculation, as shown below

                                          d_{\frac{1}{2}\text{h}} \ = \ \text{speed} \ \times \ \text{time taken} \\ \\ \\ d_{\frac{1}{2}\text{h}} \ = \ 80 \ \text{km h}^{-1} \ \times \ \left(\displaystyle\frac{30}{60} \ \text{h}\right) \\ \\ \\ d_{\frac{1}{2}\text{h}} \ = \ 80 \ \text{km h}^{-1} \ \times \ 0.5 \ \text{h} \\ \\ \\ d_{\frac{1}{2}\text{h}} \ = \ 40 \ \text{km}

Now, it is known that the car traveled 40 km for the first 30 minutes. Hence, the remaining distance, d_{\text{remain}} , in which the driver reduces the speed to 40km/hr is

                                             d_{\text{remain}} \ = \ 100 \ \text{km} \ - \ 40 \ \text{km} \\ \\ \\ d_{\text{remain}} \ = \ 60 \ \text{km}.

Subsequently, we would also like to know the time taken for the car to reach its destination, denoted by  t_{\text{remian}}.

                                              t_{\text{remain}} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \\ \\ \\ t_{\text{remain}} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{60 \ \text{km}}{40 \ \text{km hr}^{-1}} \\ \\ \\ t_{\text{remain}} \ = \ 1.5 \ \text{hours}.

Finally, with all the required values at hand, the average speed of the car for the entire trip is calculated as the ratio of the change in distance over the change in time.

                                                     \text{speed} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{\Delta d}{\Delta t} \\ \\ \\ \text{speed} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{100 \ \text{km}}{(0.5 \ \text{hr} \ + \ 1.5 \ \text{hr})} \\ \\ \\ \text{speed} \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{100 \ \text{km}}{2 \ \text{hr}} \\ \\ \\ \text{speed} \ = \ 50 \ \text{km hr}^{-1}

Therefore, the average speed of the car is 50 km/hr.
