Why do heavier people have a lower blood and alcohol level?

Physics
1 answer:
Ulleksa [173]3 years ago
4 0
In general, the less you weigh the more you will be affected by a given amount of alcohol. Alcohol has a high affinity for water. Basically, one's blood alcohol concentration is a function of the total amount of alcohol in one's system divided by total body water. So for two individuals with similar body compositions and different weights, the larger individual will achieve lower alcohol concentrations than the smaller one if ingesting the same amount of alcohol.
<span>However, for people of the same weight, a well-muscled individual will be less affected than someone with a higher percentage of fat since fatty tissue does not contain very much water and will not absorb very much alcohol.</span>

A scientist conducting a field investigation records measurements of very low pressure and high relative humidity at the top of
Ivan

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Given that a scientist conducting a field investigation records measurements of very low pressure and high relative humidity at the top of a mountain.

Since a weather map indicates that a warm front is approaching the mountain, according to the conventional current, the warm front is approaching because the weather must have been in higher relative humidity in cool air.

The warm front is approaching to replace it so that the cool air can conventionally replace the warmth air too.

The condition the scientists will most likely observe at the top of the mountain will be high relative humidity.

C.

Newton’s Second Law is F=ma (force is equal to the mass multiplied by acceleration), however, the equation can be rearranged to isolate and calculate mass from force over acceleration. Therefore, m=F/a

AlexFokin [52]

Answer: 25 Ohms

Explanation:

From this question, the following parameters are given:

Voltage V = 1.5 v

Current I = 0.03A

From Ohm's law;

V = IR

Where R = resultant resistance of the two resistors.

Substitute V and I into the formula and make resultant R the subject of formula.

1.5 = 0.03 × R

R = 1.5/0.03

R = 50 Ohms

From the question, it is given that Thr two equal resistors are connected in series.

R = R1 + R2

But R1 = R2

50 = 2R1

R1 = 50/2

R1 = 25

R1 = R2 = 25 Ohms

Therefore, the resistors must each have a value of 25 Ohms

Food provide your body with
Levart [38]
The food you eat every day provides the nutrients you need to survive. These food components include the macronutrients – protein, carbohydrate and fat – that offer calories as well as play specific roles in maintaining your health. Micronutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, don’t act as an energy source but do serve a variety of critical functions to ensure your body operates as optimally as possible.
