A wire is used to power a radio that is much too small for the current it is carrying. Using a voltmeter, a voltage drop of 0.20 volts is measured between the ends of the wire, which carries 5.0 amps (and gets warm). What is the resistance of this wire? Round to the nearest hundredth.
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

How much resistance is present in a 6.0-volt electric motor that draws 10.0 amps of current?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
