The answer is cohesion. The high surface tension helps the paper clip (with much higher density) float on water. The property of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to cohesive nature of its molecules. Cohesion refers to the attraction of molecules for molecules of the same kind. Water molecules have strong cohesive forces due to their ability to form hydrogen bond with each other.

The map of a walking trail is drawn on a coordinate grid with three points of interest. The trail starts at R(−2, 4) and goes to
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The total length will be "10 units". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given points are:

R(−2, 4)

S(3, 4)

T(3, −1)

On applying the distance formula,

⇒ RS=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

⇒       =\sqrt{(3-(-2))^2+(4-4)^2}

⇒       =\sqrt{(3+2)^2+(0)^2}

⇒       =\sqrt{25}

⇒       =5 \ units

and,

⇒ ST=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

⇒       =\sqrt{(3-3)^2+(-1-4)^2}

⇒       =\sqrt{0+(-5)^2}

⇒       =5 \ units

Now,

The total trail length will be:

= RS+ST

= 5+5

= 10 \ units

A respiratory rate of less than ________ and greater than ________ in cases of trauma are criteria for immediate transportation
vovikov84 [41]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A. 8; 32

B. 10; 29

C. 12; 20

D. 5; 45

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B

Explanation:

Trauma is the experience caused by the life-threatening events or events which help develop the psychological distress conditions.

The trauma can cause changes in the physiologic and psychological responses in humans. The CDC guidelines have stated criterion for immediate transportation of the person to the trauma centre in which one of the criteria is that if a person has the respiratory rate of less than 10 and greater than 29 will be transported to the trauma centre immediately.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
