Answer:

The asnwer A) make certain the power is turned off.

Explanation:

The first thing to do in this case is to ensure that the power is off. Whenever we are faced with an electrical accident case, the auxiliary person must be very clear that under no circumstance should he directly touch the victim who is suffering from an electrification, since it is certain that the current will also happen to him, then there is one more victim. Once the above is done, call the emergency department and start cardiopulmonary resuscitation by qualified personnel.

Just how far should an employee go with loyalty? Are there boundaries?
NeX [460]

Answer:

Ethically speaking, a worker should develop absolute loyalty to a company, or place, he/she works for, as it shows an adaptation and acceptance of the company´s values, principles, and fundamental aspects. This loyalty will ensure that a worker will carry out his/her duty to the best of her/his ability, always in the best interest of the company at large.

However, I do believe there must be a boundary to how much loyalty a person has towards a company, and especially, when this loyalty is pushing the person to perform an activity that basically undermines that person´s own personal values and principles. So, there should be a boundary when the loyalty to a company crosses the line and overcomes the personal limitations, the concience, if you will, of a worker.

For example, if you are a nurse, and the hospital you work for asks you to hide certain information from adverse events that have taken place due to a possible malpractice, or due to institutional shortcomings, but you know that the right thing to do is to hand over such information, for the greater good of patients and their families, over the welfare of the hospital itself, then I believe that the nurse should take the necessary measures, and overcome her loyalty. This event goes over personal boundaries and surpasses any possible loyalty that a worker may be required to have.

Patrick has shoulder impingement syndrome. He has been referred to you by a physical therapist for strengthening of his shoulder
Vitek1552 [10]

The available options are:

a) Push-up plus off a wall → shoulder IR/ER → seated DB press

b) Shoulder IR/ER → push-up plus → seated DB press

c) Shoulder IR/ER → seated DB press → push-up plus

d) High-rep bench press → shoulder IR/ER → abdominal crunch

Answer:

A. Push-up plus off a wall -> shoulder IR/ER -> seated DB press

Explanation:

A push-up plus off a wall is an example of a closed chain exercise as the arm is fixated to a stationary surface.

It also make your shoulder blades to move freely, making serratus anterior stronger, a vital muscle that keeps scapula stable and helps it rotate upward. This in turn reduces shoulder impingement when push-ups plus off a wall is done.

Shoulder IR/ER also helps to correct the imbalance in the rotator muscles of the shoulder.

Also, seated DB press strengthens all muscles of the shoulder in a functional way.

Here is how Lydia found the product 4/5 x 10. Use the model given to show that Lydia's answer is correct.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: Lydia's answer is correct.

Explanation:

The solution used by Lydia is:

4/5 × 10 = 4 × 1/5 × 10

= 4 × 10/5

= 4 × 2

= 8

The above solution by Lydia is correct.

Given the question, 4/5 × 10, this will be:

= 4/5 × 10/1

Let's multiply the numerator first, this will be: = 4 × 10 = 40

The denominator will be: = 5 × 1 = 5

Therefore, 4/5 × 10/1 = 40/5

Now when we divide 40 by 5, we will get 8. Therefore Lydia is correct.
