Explanation / Answer

Slutions:

(12) As 1000 gram is 1 litre so 1500 gm = 1.5 litres

(13) As 1 mile per hour = 1.60934 km per hour so 55 mile per hour equals 55 * 1.60934 = 88.5139 km per hour.

(14) As 1 ounce = 29.5735 ml so 12 ounce = 12 * 29.5735 = 354.882 ml.

(15) values of ques 9 is not given so not possible to calculate.

(16) man produce 10 mg of harmone in 1 day

he produces 1 mg in (1/10) day (as 1 gram = 1000 mg)

1000 mg in (1/10)*1000 = 100 day so

1 gram in 100 days answer

(17) 1 beat pumps 70 ml

so 70 beats pumps 70* 70 = 4900 ml = 4.9 litre

remaining is 0.1 litre = 100 ml

as 70 ml pumps in 1 beat so 100 ml in 1.4 beat also

70 beats in 60 sec so 1.4 beats in 1.2 second

So total time to pump all (5 litres) blood is 1 minute 1 sec approx.

(18) is the similar as above

(19) 1 minute = 11 breaths

60 minute = 660 breaths also

1 breaths = 450 ml of air

So 660 breaths = 660 * 450 = 297000 ml = 279 litres of air in 1 hour

(20) speed of nerve = 1 meter/sec so directly it travels 1 meter in 1 second

.5 meter in .5 second ,

.1 meter in .1 sec

1 cm in .01 sec

1 mm in .001 sec

(21) In an average healthy adult, the volume of blood is about one-eleventh of the body weight.

So if blood volume is 5 litres means weight is apprioximately 11 * 5 = 55kg
