The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of a kidney is \(120\ \text{mL min}^{-1}\). Plasma contains urea at \(5\ \text{mmol L}^{-1}\) and glucose at \(0.1\ \text{mmol L}^{-1}\). Of the filtered glucose, \(99\%\) is re‑absorbed, while \(60\%\) of the filtered urea is re‑absorbed. No secretion occurs. If the urine flow rate is \(1.5\ \text{mL min}^{-1}\), calculate the concentration of urea in the final urine (in \(\text{mmol L}^{-1}\)).
