Impedance plethysmography is a technique that can be used to detect thrombosis--the presence of clots in a blood vessel--by meas

uring the electrical resistance of a limb, such as the calf of the leg. In a typical clinical setting, a current of 200 μA is passed through the leg from the upper thigh to the foot. The voltage is measured at two points along the calf separated by 13 cm. Part A:
If the voltage measured is 17 mV, what is the resistance of the calf between the electrodes?

Part B:

If the average calf diameter between the electrodes is 12 cm, what is the average resistivity of this part of the leg?

Answer:

a) The resistance of the calf between the electrodes is 85\Omega

b) The average resistivity of this part of the leg is 57.81m\Omega/cm^{3}

Explanation:

Hi

a) Using Ohm's law V=IR, solving for R, we obtain R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{17mV}{200uA}=85\Omega

b) The volume of the calf is like a cylinder, so Vol=\pi r^{2}h, with h=13cm and r=d/2=6cm, therefore Vol=\pi (6cm)^{2}(13cm)=468\pi cm^{3}. Then we can use R_{av}=\frac{R}{Vol} =\frac{85\Omega}{468\pi cm^{3}} =0.05781\Omega /cm^{3}=57.81m\Omega/cm^{3}, this is the average resistivity of this part of the leg.

The curve below shows the percentage of population of aquatic species that die in response to doses of pollutant A:
Elis [28]

Based on the trend produced by the dose - response graph, it would be best to evacuate the residents in other to prevent the increasing percentage of deaths due to the rising level of pollutant A.

  • The curve shows that the pollutant level in mg/kg of pollutant A is still increasing, hence, groundwater monitoring alone won't be the best decision to make.

  • Since the pollutant level is still increasing, then the spill level still need effective monitoring.

  • Evacuation of residents seems to be the best decision that should be taken based on the information interpreted on the graph.

Therefore, Evacuating residents to prevent rising death percentage is required as the pollutant level is yet to subside.

A wheel in the shape of a flat, heavy, uniform, solid disk is initially at rest at the top of an inclined plane of height 2.00 m
olasank [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

If friction is neglected, the wheel cannot roll and can only slide frictionlessly and will have the same velocity at the bottom of the ramp as if it had been in free fall as it has converted the same amount of potential energy.

mgh = ½mv²

v = √(2gh) = √(2(9.81)(2.00)) = 6.26418... = 6.26 m/s

However if we do not ignore all friction and the wheel rolls without slipping down the slope, the potential energy becomes linear and rotational kinetic energy

mgh = ½mv² + ½Iω²

mgh = ½mv² + ½(½mR²)(v/R)²

2gh = v² + ½v²

2gh = 3v²/2

v = √(4gh/3) =√(4(9.81)(2.00)/3) = 5.11468... = 5.11 m/s
