Gramática I. ¿Reflexivo o no? Look at the images and complete each sentence with the correct present-tense form of the appropriate verb. Modelo: Luisa levanta a su hijo por la mañana. Ella se levanta por la mañana a las 5:00 am. Cuando yo [1] (enfermar / enfermarse), prefiero guardar cama por dos o tres días. Miguel [2](sentir / sentirse) frustrado. Si (If) la niña no [3](mejorar / mejorarse), no puede jugar ni ir a la escuela. Beatris [4] (lavar/lavarse) el auto los fines de semana. Liliana [5] (cuidar/cuidarse) a la señora Ramirez porque ella tiene 89 años, es bastante mayor.

Your initial exposure is 40 mAs, 200 mA at 0.20 sec. If you want to decrease your mAs to 20 and decrease your exposure time to 0.10 sec, what mA is required?
