Metabolic syndrome is characterized by all of the following EXCEPT

1 answer:

3 0

The term metabolic syndrome defines a group of risk factors which determine your risk for health issues such as heart disease, a stroke and diabetes. Abdominal weight gain (a), elevated blood fat (c) and insulin resistance (d) are all characteristics which will increase your risk of the above health issues. The only characteristic that will decrease your risk of heart disease, diabetes and a stroke is reduced blood pressure (b). If you have any of these negative characteristics, it is important to work at reducing them; thereby, improving your health.

How long does it take to raise the temperature of the air in a good-sized living room (3.00m×5.00m×8.00m) by 10.0∘C? Note that t

QveST [7]

Answer : The time required is, 16.1 minutes.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the amount of heat required to increase the temperature is:

$Q=mC\Delta T\\\\Q=\rho VC\Delta T$

$(m=\rho V)$

where,

Q = amount of heat required = ?

m = mass

$\rho$ = density of air = $1.20kg/m^3$

V = volume of air

C = specific heat of air = $1006J/kg^oC$

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = $10.0^oC$

Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:

$Q=\rho VC\Delta T$

$Q=(1.20kg/m^3)\times (3.00m\times 5.00m\times 8.00m)\times (1006J/kg^oC)\times (10.0^oC)$

$Q=1.449\times 10^6J$

Now we have to calculate the time required.

Formula used :

$t=\frac{Q}{P}$

where,

t = time required = ?

Q = amount of heat required = $1.449\times 10^6J$

P = power = 1500 W

Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:

$t=\frac{1.449\times 10^6J}{1500W}$

$t=966s\times \frac{1min}{60s}=16.1min$

Thus, the time required is, 16.1 minutes.

Ricardo, of mass 80 kg, and Carmelita, who is lighter, are enjoying Lake Merced at dusk in a 30 kg canoe. When the canoe is at r

Deffense [45]

Answer:

m=57.65 kg

Explanation:

Given Data

Ricardo mass m₁=80 kg

Canoe mass m₂=30 kg

Canoe Length L= 3 m

Canoe moves x=40 cm

When Canoe was at rest the net total torque is zero.

Let the center of mass is at x distance from the canoe center and it will be towards the Ricardo cause. So the toque around the center of mass is given as

$m_{1}(L/2-x)=m_{2}x+m_{2}(L/2-x)$

We have to find m₂.To find the value of m₂ first we need figure out the value of.As they changed their positions the center of mass moved to other side by distance 2x.

2x=40

x=40/2

x=20 cm

Substitute in the above equation we get

$m_{x}=\frac{m_{1}(L/2-x)-m_{2}x }{L/2+x}\\m_{x}=\frac{80(\frac{3}{2}-0.2 )-30*0.2}{3/2+0.2}\\m_{x}=57.65 kg$
