Suppose you measure a standing person's blood pressure by placing the cuff on his leg 0.470 m below the heart. calculate the pre

ssures you would observe (in units of mm hg) if the pressure at the heart were 120 over 80 mm hg. assume there is no loss of pressure due to resistance in the circulatory system (a reasonable assumption, since major arteries are large).

The first pressure is illustrative of the maximum output of the heart; the second is because of the elasticity of the arteries in upholding the pressure between beats. Solution:760 mm HG is equivalent to 13.6*.760 m =10.34 m H2O 
Then multiply: 470/10.34 * 760mmHg to each of the readings. The answer is about 35 mmHg add this to the current reading of 120/80
Therefore:ΔP=35 mm Hg,Leg blood pressure is 155/115.

Light enters water from air at an angle of 25° with the normal, Θ1. If water has an index of refraction of 1.33, determine Θ2.
vladimir1956 [14]
By Snell's law:

η = sini / sinr.        i = 25,  η = 1.33

1.33 = sin25° / sinr

sinr = sin25° / 1.33 = 0.4226/1.33 = 0.3177    Use a calculator.

r = sin⁻¹(0.3177)

r ≈ 18.52°

Option A.

God's grace.

Calculate the change in length of a Pyrex glass dish (Coefficient of linear expansion for Pyrex is 3 x 10^-6 /C) that is 0.3 met
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

0.000225 m

Explanation:

Coefficient of linear expansion = \alpha_L=3\times 10^{-6} /C

Length = 0.3 meters

ΔT = Change in temperature = 250 °C

Linear expansion

\frac{\Delta L}{L} = \alpha_L\Delta T\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=\alpha_L\Delta T\times L\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=3\times 10^{-6}\times 0.3\times 250=0.000225\ m

Change in length of the Pyrex glass dish is 0.000225 m.
