Laws
What is Dalton's law?
Total pressure is equal to the sum of the
partial pressures of each of the gases in the mixture
What is the Bernoulli Principle?
As the forward velocity of a gas (or liquid)
moving through a tube increases, the lateral
wall pressure of the tube decreases.
Is oxygen 'para' or 'dia' magnetic?
Paramagnetic
What is Airway resistance in the large and the small airway?
Large: 90%
Small: 10%
Formula for potential energy.
Mass x gravity x height
What is Boyle's law?
If temperature and the amount of gas is constant, pressure and volume are inversely related.
What is the Bernoulli Effect?
The drop in fluid pressure at a constriction in a
tubing conduit is directly related to the increase in velocity of the fluid.
What are two types of electrochemical analyzers?
Galvanic and polarographic
What anatomically makes up the series resistance?
Nasal airway, Airflow through the larynx, lower airway resistance.
Define kinetic energy.
energy which is produced by the movement of a substance.
What is Charle's law?
If pressure remains constant, temperature and volume will be directly related with a change in temperature.
What is the Venturi Principle?
The pressure that has dropped as the fluid
flows through a constriction in the tube can be
restored to the preconstriction pressure if a
gradual dilation occurs in the tube distal to the
constriction.
How much CO2 is in room air?
<1%
What anatomically makes up the Parallel resistance?
Right and left nasal passage.
Right and left main stem bronchi.
Continued airway branching.
Name 3 units for pressure.
PSI, mmHg, cm H2O
What is Gay-Lussac's law?
If volume remains constant, temperature and pressure are directly related.
Kinetic Energy, Potential Energy, Pressure Energy.
Define "Diamagnetism".
Atoms that are repelled by a magnetic force.
Series circuit formula.
R1+R2+R3
3 types of intermolecular force.
Dipole, hydrogen bonding, Dispersion forces.
What is the Combined Gas law?
Neither pressure, temperature, or volume remain constant.
Define "Air-Entrainment"
Drawing a second fluid into a stream of flow.
What is the Pauling Principle?
Oxygen molecules will align themselves along a magnetic field.
Parallel circuit formula.
1/R1+1/R2+1/R3
What is Avogadro's Law?
At equal volumes with equal temperatures and pressures, they will have an equal number of molecules.
