Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The amount of air entrained depends on both the diameter of the jet orifice and the size of the air-entrainment ports (Figure 6-27). For a fixed jet size, the larger the entrainment ports, the greater is the volume of air entrained and the higher is the total flow (Figure 6-27, B). The en-trained volume can still be altered, with fixed entrainment ports, by changing the jet diameter (Figure 6-27, C). A large jet results in a lower gas velocity and less entrainment, whereas a small jet boosts velocity, entrained volume, and total flow.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
In respiratory care, the most common application of fluid entrainment is the air injector.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Approximately one in four people diagnosed with diabetes will develop foot problems. Of these, about one-third will require lower extremity amputation.

Adults are resistant to the bacterium that causes Botulism. These bacteria thrive in honey – therefore, honey should never be given to infants since their immune systems are not yet resistant.

Oxytocin is recommended only for pregnancies that have a medical reason for inducing labor (such as eclampsia) and is not recommended for elective procedures or for making the birthing process more convenient.
