A 20-N crate starting at rest slides down a rough 5.0-m long ramp, inclined at 25° with the horizontal. 20 J of energy is lost to friction. What will be the speed of the crate at the bottom of the incline?

Adisa pulls a 40-N crate up a 5.0-m long inclined plane at a constant velocity. If the plane is inclined at an angle of 37° to the horizontal and there is a constant force of friction of 10 N between the crate and the surface, what is the net change in potential energy of the crate?

A titanium sample contains half the number of atoms found in one mole of titanium. How many atoms are in the sample?

What is the liter flow range required to activate a small volume nebulizer?

You are a Respiratory Therapist working in ICU. The physician assistant approaches you and asks for your expertise on Aerosol Drug delivery devices. She asks if there is a nebulizer that only nebulizes on inhalation and not on exhalation. This is to increase the amount of drug available for the patient on inspiration. Which nebulizer would you mention to the physician assistant?

Patients are asked to rinse their mouth after inhaled steroid administration due to what reason?

True or False: Compared to pMDIs, a Respimat Soft Mist Inhaler aerosol medication provides better lung deposition and oropharyngeal deposition is reduced.  

Which of the following are considered goals of humidity therapy?I. To provide adequate heat and humidityII. To aid removal of thick secretions. III. Provide BronchodilationIV. To treat hypothermiaV. To prevent airway response to cold air

Which nebulizer uses a piezoelectric transducer that is located in the bottom of the chamber of the unit. The transducer is electrically charged and produces high-frequency vibrations. The vibrations caused by the piezoelectric transducer break the liquid medication in the cup into small particles which are delivered to the patient.  Which nebulizer am I referring to?
