Answer: Steam burns the skin worse than hot water because the heat of vaporization is released as well.
Explanation:
The steam exhibit more energy than water at the same temperature that is 100° C. The steam uses the latent heat of vaporization so as to get vapourize and water do not exhibit energy. This latent heat of energy causes severe burns due to steam as compared to water. Steam burns are caused by the heat of vapors and they form scalds.
Answer:
The factor favoring filtrate formation at the glomerulus is the <u>glomerular hydrostatic pressure.</u>
Explanation:
glomerular hydrostatic pressure is the pressure of the blood in the glomerular capillaries.
The pressure generated by the fluid against a surface is called the Hydrostatic pressure . The blood in glomerulus generates the glomerular hydrostatic pressure , that forces the fluid out of glomerulus into the glomerular capsule .
Fluid in glomerular capsule generates pressure that pushes the fluid out of glomerular capsule back into the glomerulus , opposing glomerular hydrostatic pressure . this is called the capsular hydrostatic pressure .
The fluid exerts pressure in the opposite direction , and hence , the net movement of the fluid will be in the direction of lower pressure .
I would think the answer is 15 smoke-free years.
Answer:
0.6mL
Explanation:
In general you can find the actual volume to be administered as follows:
actual volume = (actual amount / dose amount) x dose volume
actual volume = (175mcg / 300mcg) x 1mL = 0.58mL
In practice it would probably be easier to just administer 0.6mL. The difference in dose won't be clinically meaningful.
