Calculate the hydrostatic difference in blood pressure between the brain and the foot in a person of height 1.93 m. The density

of blood is 1.06 × 103 kg/m3.
Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

Given: Density of blood = 1.03 × 10³ Kg/m³, Height =  1.93 m g = 9.8 m/s²

pressure at the brain is equal to atmospheric pressure. = Hydro-static

pressure(ρ₀)

∴ pressure of the foot = pressure of the brain(ρ₀) + ( density of blood × acceleration due to gravity × height)(ρgh)

Hydro-static pressure = pressure at the feet- pressure at the brain(ρ₀)

Hydro-static pressure (Δp) = (ρgh + ρ₀) - ρ₀ = ρgh

Hydro-static pressure = 1.03 × 10³ × 9.8 × 1.93 = 1.948 × 10⁴ Pa

∴  Hydro-static pressure ≈ 1.95 × 10⁴ Pa

Describe a ball's motion as it rolls up a slanted
emmasim [6.3K]

The ball will decelerate as it moves upwards.

The magnitude of the ball's acceleration is 0.3 m/s² and it directed backwards.

The given parameters;

  • initial velocity of the ball, u = 1.25 m/s
  • time of motion of the ball, t = 4.22 s

As the ball rolls up the inclined plane, the velocity decreases and eventually becomes zero when the ball reaches the highest point of the plane.

Thus, the ball decelerate as it moves upwards.

The acceleration of the ball is calculate as;

a = \frac{v_f -v_0}{t} \\\\

<em>at the highest point on the incline plane, the final velocity </em>v_f<em> is zero</em>

a = \frac{0-1.25}{4.22} \\\\a = -0.3 \ m/s^2

Thus, the magnitude of the ball's acceleration is 0.3 m/s² and it directed backwards.

Subduction occurs as a result of:__________
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

a) Gravity pulling the older and denser lithosphere downward.

Explanation:

Earth's crust is made of plates which float on mantle . Plates are of two types

1 ) oceanic plates which are older and heavier 2 ) continental plates which are lighter . Continents are situated on continental plates. Due to relative motion , oceanic plate, because of its  heavy weight,  goes under lighter continental plate . This is called subduction.
