Chapter 1: Q12E (page 59)

(a) The recommended daily allowance (RDA) of the trace metal magnesium is 410mg/day for males. Express this quantity in mg/day. (b) For adults, the RDA of the amino acid lysine is 12mg per kg of body weight. How many grams per day should a 75-kg adult receive? (c) A typical multivitamin tablet can contain 2.0mg of vitamin B2(riboflavin), and the RDA is 0.0030g/day. How many such tablets should a person take each day to get the proper amount of this vitamin, if he gets none from other sources? (d) The RDA for the trace element selenium is0.000070g/day. Express this dose in mg/day.

Short Answer

Expert verified

After the calculation as per given problem a 75 Kg weighed adult can consume 900mg or 0.900grams of Lysine.

Step by step solution

01

Calculation daily trace

410mg/day

=410脳1000=410000

02

consumption by 75Kg weighed adult

(b)

1000mg=1gram

So, hypothetically if someone weighed 1Kg they would need 12mg of Lysine daily.

That means , a 75 Kg adult would need 900mg lysine, which is0.900grams.

03

Calculation of number of tablets

( c)

No of tablets =0.003/0.002=1.5 tablets

Therefore, he should take 2 tablets.

04

Conversion

0.000070g/day=0.070mg/day(conversion g to mg )

You have probably noticed that the lower the tire pressure, the larger the contact area between the tire and the road. Why?

You hold a hose at waist height and spray water horizontally with it. The hose nozzle has a diameter of 1.80 cm, and the water splashes on the ground a distance of 0.950 cm horizontally from the nozzle. If you constrict the nozzle to a diameter of 0.750 cm, how far from the nozzle, horizontally, will the water travel before it hits the ground? (Ignore air resistance.)

A cylindrical bucket, open at the top, is 25.0 cm high and 10.0 cm in diameter. A circular hole with a cross-sectional area 1.50 cm2 is cut in the center of the bottom of the bucket. Water flows into the bucket from a tube above it at the rate of 2.40 x 10-4m3/s. How high will the water in the bucket rise?
