The correct answer is "immediately flood the area with water and clean the wound."

Further Explanation:

If someone is exposed to a potentially infectious material with a sharps item such a needle, they need to wash the area with clean water immediately. It must be a steady flow of water to get out any potential infectious material.

After flushing the injury with water, you will then wash the area or exposed skin with soap, if at all possible use a disinfectant on the area.

The person who was injured should seek medical assistance for tests to be sure that they have not been affected.

One kilogram of air, initially at 5 bar, 350 K, and 3 kg of carbon dioxide (CO2), initially at 2 bar, 450 K, are confined to opp

pentagon [3]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Energy alance of 2 closed systems: Heat from CO2 equals the heat that is added to air in

$m_{a} c_{v,a}(T_{eq} -T_{a,i)} =m_{co2} c_{v,co2} (T_{co2,i} -T_{eq)}$

1x0.723x $(T_{eq} -350)$ =3x0.780x $(450-T_{eq} )$ ⇒ $T_{eq}$ = 426.4 °K

The initail volumes of the gases can be determined by the ideal gas equation of state,

$V_{a,i} = \frac{mRT_{a,i} }{P_{a,i} }$ = $\frac{1x (8.314 28.97 kJ kg • °K)x 350°K}{5 bar x 100KPa bar}$ = 0.201 $m^{3}$

The equilibrium pressure of the gases can also be obtained by the ideal gas equation

$P_{eq=\frac{(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq})+(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq} ) }{(V_{a,eq}+V_{CO2,eq)} } =\frac{(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq})+(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq} ) }{(V_{a,i}+V_{CO2,i)} }$

$P_{eq}$ = 1x(8.314 28.97)x426.4+3x(8.314 44)x426.4

(0.201+1.275)

= 246.67 KPa = 2.47 bar

Savatey [412]

Answer:3.47 m

Explanation:

Given

Temperature(T)=300 K

velocity(v)=1.5 m/s

At 300 K

$\mu =1.846 \times 10^{-5} Pa-s$

$\rho =1.77 kg/m^3$

And reynold's number is given by

$Re.=\frac{\rho v\time x}{\mu }$

$5\times 10^5=\frac{1.77\times 1.5\times x}{1.846\times 10^{-5}}$

$x=\frac{5\times 10^5\times 1.846\times 10^{-5}}{1.77\times 1.5}$

x=3.47 m

Create a separate function file fieldtovar.m that receives a single structure as an input and assigns each of the field values t

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Explanation gives the answer

Explanation:

% Using MATLAB,

% Matlab file : fieldtovar.m

function varargout = fieldtovar(S)

% function that accepts single structure as input, assigning each

% of the field values to user-defined variables

fields = fieldnames(S); % get the field names of the input structure

% check if number of user-defined variables and number of fields in

% structure are equal

if nargout == length(fields)

% if equal assign each value of structure to user-defined varable

for i=1:nargout

varargout{i} = getfield(S,fields{i});

end

else

% if not equal display an error message

error('The number of output variables does not equal the number of fields');

end

%This brings an end to the program
