Answer:

37min/hour

Explanation:

% of rest with respect to work time=  (PWC-Ejob)/(Erest-Ejob)

According to NIOSH 1991, PWC= 3.7kcal/min

E job= 1.5 litre/min of oxygen × 4.9 kcal/litres of oxygen

E job= 7.35 kcal/min

Taking E rest= 1.5 kcal/min

% of rest with respect to work time= (3.7-7.35)/(1.5-7.35)×100

                                                             = 62.4%

62.4 % of an hour or 37min/hour.

1.)Which is a common disease involving the sores on the esophagus, stomach, and/or small intestine?
dangina [55]
1.) C - peptic ulcer. Peptic ulcers are sores that develop in the lining of the stomach, lower esophagus, or small intestine. GERD is a digestive disorder; Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums; Gastritis is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach.

2.) D - bladder cancer. Smokers are 4 to 7 times more likely to develop bladder cancer than nonsmokers. Alcohol and smoking do not directly cause kidney stones so I guess kidney stones is out of the choices.

3.) C - pharmacological treatment Pharmacotherapy is a general term for using medication to treat disease and reduce or cure illness.

4.) A - A hormone is like an e-mail with instructions from someone’s boss. Hormones are chemicals that coordinate several functions in the body. Hormones are chemical substances that act like messenger molecules in the body.

5.) B - protein. A diet rich in proteins such as eggs, cheese, and whole-wheat products produces urine with an alkaline pH that may result in increased urea production. 

6.) B - Fluid levels could not be maintained.

7.) A - oranges. Oranges and broccoli both have high fiber and helps ease constipation. So I'm not really sure which is which.

8.) C - The thyroid is a gland and secretes the hormone. The thyroid gland is part of the endocrine system and lies in front of one's neck and below the Adam's apple.

9.) D- Nephrons restore the substances and water the body needs. Nephrons main functions include regulating the concentration of sodium salts and water by filtering the kidney’s blood, excreting any excess in the urine and reabsorbing the necessary amounts. Nephron return essential substances such as glucose, amino acids, water, and salt to thecapillaries that surround the nephron.

10.) B - kidney stones

zepelin [54]
Well the most immediate risks would be that he cut an artery or vein. This would mean that he could possibly bleed out. There is also shock that would come into play. So the first steps would be look at where the cut is and see if you can tell by that if it did Nick an artery. If you can't tell look at the color of the blood of it is arterial blood it will be a very dark red. Apply direct and consistent pressure to the wound and pay attention to whether or not they are starting to get pale. Then either use a phone or call out for help.
