  • Einstein’s Mass-Energy Equivalence

    Binding Energy: E = mc² (Joules)

  • Magnetic Moment

    μ = eh / (2m)

  • de Broglie Wavelength

    λ = h / (mv)

  • Photon Energy & Frequency

    Energy: E = hν

    Frequency: ν = c / λ (Hertz)

  • Rydberg Formula (Wavenumber)

    Wavenumber: ṽ = R_H (1/n₁² – 1/n₂²)

  • Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle

    The product of the uncertainty in a particle’s momentum (Δp) and its position (Δx) is greater than or

Understanding Chemical Equilibrium: Constants, Principles, and Factors

Chemical Equilibrium: Constants and Principles

Kc = [C]c [D]d / [A] [B]b = Q (not express equilibrium concentrations) <kc reaction to right> left = reaction toward equilibrium system

Kp = Pcc Pdd / Paa Pbb (gas only)

Kx = Xcc Xdd / Xaa Xbb

Kp = Kc (RT)W

Kx = Kp · PW

Pparcial = X (n species / total n) · Pt

Degree of dissociation (alpha #) # = x (n-differentiated) / c (initial total n) | A-2B (n (1 – #) / 2n #), A-B + C (n (1 – #) / n # / n #), 2A-B + C (n (1 – #) / n # / 2 / n # / 2), 2A + B-2C

Cardiovascular and Neurological Conditions: A Review

Angina

Substernal pain caused by insufficient perfusion of the myocardium.

Angina Types

  • Stable: Oxygen demand exceeds supply, usually brought on by physical exertion.
    • Drug therapy: SL NTG, BB, or LA nitrate
  • Variant: Oxygen supply decreases due to vasospasm, may occur at rest.
    • Calcium channel blocker
  • Unstable: Oxygen supply decreases as demand increases; secondary to atherosclerotic plaque rupture within the coronary artery.
    • Combination e.g. CCB + BB

Drugs Used in Angina Pectoris

Vasodilators

Cardiac Measurements, ECG Findings, and Heart Conditions

Cardiac Measurements and Normal Values

This section provides normal values for various cardiac measurements obtained during echocardiography.

  • KSGDD (LV): N (Upper limit): 56
  • Indskas: N (Upper limit): 29
  • TSP (Interventricular Septum): N: 9-10
  • KSUS (Posterior Wall): N: 9-10
