Answer:
32 pounds
Explanation:
The amount of water in the 200 pound person is
200 * 60% = 200*0.6 = 120 pounds
Of the 120 pounds, a third of this is extracellular fluid, the amount of extracellular fluid is
120 / 3 = 40 pounds
20 % of this is in the blood, which amounts to
40 * 20% = 40 * 0.2 = 8 pounds
The rest is interstitial fluid, which is
40 - 8 = 32 pounds
Answer:
The correct answer is 24.
Explanation:
Answer:
K = -½U
Explanation:
From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;
U = -GMm/R
Where,
G is gravitational constant
M and m are the two masses exerting the forces
R is the distance between the two objects
Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;
K = GMm/2R
Re-rranging, we have;
K = ½(GMm/R)
Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;
K = -½U
