Answer:

towards Andrew

Explanation:

The direction in which the desk will move would be towards Andrew.

This is a simple case of resultant force. If both Michael and Andrew had pushed the desk together across the classroom, the resultant force would have been the addition of their individual's applied forces - neglecting any other extraneous forces. However, since they decided to push against each other, the resultant force would the subtraction of their individual forces and the desk will move towards the person with who applied the lower forces out of the two.

<em>Since Michael applied force was 30 N and that of Andrew was 28 N, the resultant force would therefore be 2 N in the direction of Andrew. In other words, </em><em>the desk would move towards Andrew.</em>

UAE are working to reduce the percentage of osteoporosis in UAE. What are the strategies they follow to achieve their goal?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

The strategies used to treat osteoporosis are as follow:

- A diet based on foods rich in calcium and Vitamin D (e.g., poultry and fresh fruits)

- Regular sun exposure  

- Regular physical exercise  

Explanation:

Osteoporosis is a prevalent disease in older people that makes bones more fragile/porous, and therefore more likely to suffer breaks. This condition can substantially reduce the quality of life, especially in people aged at least 65 years. Osteoporosis is caused by poor nutrition, i.e., by the lack of foods rich in nutrients, especially rich in calcium and vitamin D (e.g., milk, fresh fruits, etc), which leads to a decrease in bone density. In UAE, it has been shown approximately 70 % of its population suffers from Vitamin D deficiency and calcium deficiency. Exposure to the sun helps the body to synthesize vitamin D, contributing to prevent this disease. Moreover, regular physical activity may improve bone density and therefore reduces the risk of fractures derived from osteoporosis.
