The Physician may write Sub-Q on the prescription.

As a Physician, while attending to a patient, you are permitted to use professional abbreviations while writing prescriptions.for patients.

Abbreviations are used during prescriptions to save time and limit drug abuse by patients

When a physician wants a patient to inject a medication under their skin, abbreviations such as Sub-Q can be written in the prescription note.

Sub-Q is used because is means subcutaneous.

Subcutaneous route of drug administration is a parental route of medication and are administered to the layer of skin referred to as cutis, just below the dermis and epidermis layers.

Therefore, the Physician may write Sub-Q on the prescription.

\textsf {\large{\underline { \underline {SOLUTION:-}}}}

⇰Let O be the point of observation on the ground OX.

⇰Let A and B be the two positions of the jet.

\bf➠Then, \angle XOA=60⁰ \: and   \: \angle \: XOB=30⁰ \\  \\

\bf ➠Draw \:   AL \perp \: OX \: and  \: BM \perp \: OX \\  \\

\bf \:⇰ Let \: AL=BM=h \: meters. \\  \\

\bf \: ⇰ \: Speed \: of \: Jet  = 720 \: km/hr\\

\bf =  \huge( \small \: 720 \times  \frac{5}{18}  \huge) \small \: m / s\\

\bf = 200 \: m/s

\bf \:➥ Time  \: taken \: to \: cover \: the \: distance  \: AB=15  \: sec  \\  \\

\bf➥ Distance  \: covered =(speed×time) \\  \\

\:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \bf = (200 \times 15)m = 3000m \\  \\

\bf \therefore LM=AB=3000m \\  \\

{ \bf \: ⇰  \: Let \: OL} = x   \:  \bf m \\  \\

\bf➥From  \: right  \: \triangle OLA, \: we \: have: \\

\bf \frac{OL}{AL} =cot \: 60⁰= \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } \implies \frac{x}{h}  =  \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} }  \\  \\

\bf \implies \: x =  \frac{h}{ \sqrt{3} }  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: ....(1) \\  \\

\bf \:➥ From  \: right  \: \triangle \: OMB,we \: have: \\

\bf\frac{OM}{BM} =cot30⁰= \sqrt{3}  \\  \\

\bf \implies \:  \frac{x + 3000}{h}  =  \sqrt{3}  \\  \\

\bf[ \boxed{➯OM=OL+LM=OL+AB=(x+3000)m  \: and \: BM=h \: m]}

\bf \implies \: x + 3000 =  \sqrt{3} h \\

\bf \implies \: x = ( \sqrt{3} h - 3000) \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: ....(2) \\

⇰ Equating the value of x from (1) and (2),we get;

\bf \:  \sqrt{3} h - 3000  =  \frac{h}{ \sqrt{3} }  \\  \\

\implies \bf \: 3h  - 3000 \sqrt{3}  = h \\

\bf \implies \: 2h = (3000 \times  \sqrt{3} ) = (3000 \times 1.762) \\

\bf \implies \: h = (3000 \times 0.866) = 2598  \\  \\

\bf \:➥ Hence \: ,the \: required  \: height \: is \: \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf2598 \: m.}} \\  \\

How does antibiotic use promote the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria
worty [1.4K]

FOR EXAMPLE:
Let's say you've been taking melatonin every single night to help you sleep. After a while, you may notice that it begins to take more and more melatonin for it to work like it did the first night you took it. You were taking one per night, but you end up taking 3 per night to get the same effect because your body has resistant to the drug.

ANSWER:
After a while of taking antibiotics, microorganisms in your body may become resistant to the antibiotics (which is potentially dangerous). This occurs when bacteria change to reduce the effects of a drug.

Natali5045456 [20]
Staying abstinent can keep you free of sexually transmitted diseases and also keep your mental, emotional, and physical state as good as possible! At a young at(teens-20) sexual activity can actually harm some bodies, as they are not yet ready and matured enough. Also, when you are young it is hard enough to be emotionally stable, let alone having had sex and be emotionally stable. Remember there is always the word no, and places to stop. You can have a friend and a safeword for them to come get you etc. <span />
