In a research facility, a person lies on a horizontal platform which floats on a film of air. When the person's heart beats, it

pushes a mass m of blood into the aorta with speed v, and the body and platform move in the opposite direction with speed V. Assume that the blood's speed is 56.5 cm/s. The mass of the person + platform is 54.0 kg. The platform moves 6.30 ✕ 10−5 m in 0.160 s after one heartbeat. Calculate the mass (in g) of blood that leaves the heart. Assume that the mass of blood is negligible compared with the total mass of the person, and the person + platform is initially at rest. (Also assume that the changes in velocity are instantaneous.)

Answer:

Explanation:

Guven:

Mass of person + platform, Mt = 54 kg

= 54000 g

Velocity, Vb = 56.5 cm/s

Distance, D = 6.3 × 10^-5 m

= 6.3 × 10^-3 cm

Time = 0.16 s

V = distance/time

= 6.3 × 10^-3/0.16

= 0.039375 cm/s

From the question,

Mt × V = Mb × Vb

54000 × 0.039375 = Mb × 56.5

Calculating mass of blood,

Mb = 37.63 g

= 37.63 g of blood

Answer: 3.48g

Explanation:

here, we will be using conservation of momentum to solve the problem. i.e the total momentum remains unchanged, unless an external force acts on the system. We'll in thus question, there is no external force acting in the system.

Remember, momentum = mass * velocity, then

mass of blood * velocity of blood = combined mass of subject and pallet * velocity of subject and pallet

Velocity of blood = 56.5cm = 0.565m

mass of blood * 0.565 = 54kg * (0.000063/0.160)

mass of blood * 0.565 = 54 * 0.00039375

mass of blood * 0.565 = 0.001969

mass of blood = 0.00348kg

Thus, the mass of blood that leaves the heart is 3.48g

PLEASE HELP ME EXPLAIN THESE QUESTIONS IT'S FOR ANATOMY AND PHYS
NeX [460]

Answer:

I tried

Explanation:

You have to check a 12 year olds respiration rate by Siting them down and trying to relax.  It's best to take the respiratory rate while sitting up in a chair or in bed.  Measure their breathing rate by counting the number of times their chest or abdomen rises over the course of one minute.  Then Record this number. Now you have to answer the first few  questions based on that.

Heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate and temperature are the big four vital signs.

8.  Secondary assessments are used in order to determine the injury, how the injury occurred, how severe the injury is, and to eliminate further injury and that is why it is important.

9. It should only be performed when a person shows no signs of life or when they are unconscious, unresponsive, not breathing or not breathing normally.  

In order to perform CPR, you need to check the scene and the person. Make sure the scene is safe, then tap the person on the shoulder and shout "Are you OK?" to ensure that the person needs help. Then pen the airway,  Check for breathing,  Push hard, push fast, deliver rescue breaths, continue CPR steps.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

  the speed of the center of mass stays the same

Explanation:

In a system with no energy loss, momentum is conserved if the mass remains constant. The system described has no change in mass, and energy loss is considered negligible. Hence the product of the total mass and the velocity of its center will be a constant. The center of mass stays the same speed.
