What is a common use for the physicians Desk Reference PDR

1 answer:

7 0

The PDR is a thick volume that commonly used to provide guidance for prescription drugs available in the United states. The PDR is the most commonly used drug reference . The information is the same as the leaflet found in the drug package also known as the package insert. Drug companies pay to have their drugs included, so many generic medicines will not be found in the book.

For over 60 years, physicians and researchers have turned to PDR for the latest word on prescription drugs. It includes comprehensive and up-to-date information on more than 4000 FDA approved drugs.

Explanation A 5000 kg rocket is at rest in deep space. The rocket burns fuel pushing 10kg of exhaust gases rearward at 4000 m/s.

katovenus [111]

Answer:

F = 4000 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of rocket (M)= 5000 Kg

10 Kg gas burns at speed (m)= 4000 m/s

time = 10 s

average force = ?

at the end the rocket is at rest

by conservation of momentum

M v + m v' = 0

5000 x v - 10 x 4000 = 0

5000 v = 40000

v = 8 m/s

speed of rocket = 8 m/s

now,

we know

change in momentum = F x Δ t

$F = \dfrac{m(v_i-v_f)}{\Delta t}$

$F = \dfrac{5000(8-0)}{10}$

F = 4000 N

Hence, the average force applied to the rocket is equal to F = 4000 N

What are the main activities involved in studying physics?

Firlakuza [10]

The main activity that is involved in studying of physics is the study of natural laws. The study of physics has to do with many aspects of the universe. Physics majorly looks into the natural laws that operate in the universe and describe how they affect matter in relation to time.

A rectangular tank is filled to a depth of 10m with freshwater and open to air at atmospheric pressure.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

1. 39068.07 N

2. 19534.036 N

Explanation:

depth of water h = 10 m

atmospheric pressure Patm = 101325 Pa

density of water p = 1000 kg/m^3

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m/s^2

pressure due to depth of water = pgh

P = 1000 x 9.81 x 10 = 98100 Pa

total pressure on the bottom of the tank is Patm + p = 101325 + 98100 = 199425 Pa

Left plug has diameter = 50 cm = 0.5 m

radius = 0.5/2 = 0.25 m

height = 1 cm = 0.01 m

height below tank surface = 10 - 0.01 = 9.99

pressure at this depth = 1000 x 9.81 x 9.99 = 98001.9 Pa

total pressure = Patm + P = 101325 + 98001.9 = 199326.9 Pa

surface area of plug = π $r^{2}$ = 3.142 x $0.25^{2}$ = 0.196 $m^{2}$

force required to lift left plug = pressure x area

F = 199326.9 x 0.196 = 39068.07 N

The right side is a hemisphere with the same diameter, therefore surface area is half of the left plug

A = 0.196/2 = 0.098 $m^{2}$

force F required to lift right plug = 199326.9 x 0.098 = 19534.036 N

A year 11 pupil with a mass of 55kg swinging back on their chair and falling off it at a speed of 0.6m/s. What is his kinetic en

posledela

Answer:

Uk = 9.9 J

Explanation:

To calculate the kinetic energie (Uk), you can make use of this formula:

Uk = 0.5 * m * v²

given m = 55 kg and v = 0.6 m/s

Substituting in the formula gives:

Uk = 0.5 * 55 * (0.6)²

Uk = 0.5 * 55 * 0.36

Uk = 9.9 J

Extra:

Now let's examine the formula in relation to the SI units. If you understand the following, it will give you great insight in how smart Phisics is inter twained by looking at formulas and their standard units. It will save you time in future to convert formulas, if you use the right standard units.

The formula for kinetic energie is:

Uk = 0.5 * m * v²

Standard SI unit for mass m is kg.

Standard SI unit for speed v is m/s.

So v * v = v² and therefore v² must have the standard SI unit of m²/s².

From the formula, you see that the unit of Uk must be kg*m²/s² and since Uk is normally given in J, these both forms must be the same !

The main unit for Uk is the Joule. Now please see the picture, which shows the relation between the J and other SI units. Please understand that you can construct your 'own' formulas based these units. Now here is the time saver:

Because almost always the right units are given in a question, or because sometimes you can look up a constant in a table with an exotic and seemingly complicated unit, but that says a lot about the formula which must have been some how involved!

By this, I hope you now understand the implication of using the right standard SI units and how that can help you figure out what formula is needed.
