The thermodynamic properties of the used air i.e. temperature, gas constant and pressure was used to determine the density of air as 0.95 (kg/m^3). Mas flow rate was then determined for all the cases. The mass flow rates were then used to determine the corresponding Flinger numbers for each case. The Fliegner numbers were then used to find the Mach number i.e. the ration of local velocity of fluid to the speed of sound at that point. The corresponding pressure ration for each case was also deter...

This report details an experiment that involved a setup designed to test the growth of the boundary layer of air at low pressure flowing along a flat plate. The data collected was used to obtain the velocity profiles for each point taken along the plate, which was used to give an estimation of the points where flow regime changed from laminar to turbulent. Graphs of non-dimensional thickness against non-dimensional velocity were drawn to obtain the profiles, and boundary layer thickness against ...

As you obtain historical information regarding your patient, you note that the patient's presentation and responses are very similar to several patient complaints you have treated in the past. Integrating this information from past experience to this current experience is known as: Pattern recognition In which situation has the threat to your personal safety been reduced most significantly?

Major functions of the kidneys Filtering out wastes to be excreted in the urine, regulating blood pressure via both urinary excretion of wastes and initiating the renin-angiotensin hormone regulatory system, regulating an acid-base balance via the bicarbonate system, and stimulating red blood cell production via the release of the hormone erythropoietin. Renal Failure Renal failure is the temporary or permanent damage to the kidneys which results in loss of normal kidney function. There...
