Answer:

When the blood and the dialysate are flowing in the same direction, as the the dialysate and the blood move away from the region of higher concentration of the urea, to a region distant from the source, the concentration of urea in the blood stream and in the dialysis reach equilibrium and diffusion across the semipermeable membrane stops within the higher filter regions such as II, III, IV or V

However, for counter current flow, as the concentration of the urea in the blood stream becomes increasingly lesser the, it encounters increasingly unadulterated dialysate coming from the dialysate source, such that diffusion takes place in all regions of the filter

A convex lens of focal length 35 cm produces a magnified image 2.5 times the size of the object. What is the object distance if

Zanzabum

Answer:

Image distance is -52.5 cm

Image is virtual and forms on the same side of the lens and upright image is formed.

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 35

m = Magnification = 2.5

$m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow 2.5=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow v=-2.5 u$

Lens equation

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{35}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{-2.5u}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{35}=\frac{3}{5u}\\\Rightarrow u=21\ cm$

$v=-2.5\times 21=-52.5\ cm$

Image distance is -52.5 cm

Image is virtual and forms on the same side of the lens and upright image is formed.

A student jumps off a sled toward the NORTH after it stops at the bottom of an icy hill. Based on Newton's third law of motion,

zhuklara [117]

When the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

<h3>What is the Newton third law?</h3>

According to the Newton third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. This means that the direction of the reaction force must also be opposite to that of the action.

As such, when the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.
