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.

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

Suppose we have a 600 kilogram great "yellow" shark swimming to the right at a speed of 3 meters traveled each second as it trie
sammy [17]

Answer:

2.64 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a 600 kilogram great "yellow" shark swimming to the right at a speed of 3 meters traveled each second as it tries to get lunch. An unsuspecting 100 kilogram blue fin tuna is minding its own business swimming to the left at a speed of 0.5 meters traveled each second. GULP! After the great "yellow" shark "collides" with the blue fin tuna

Momentum = MV

Momentum of the yellow shark before collision = 600 × 3 = 1800 kgm/s

Momentum of the tun final before collision = 100 × 0.5 = 50 kgm/s

Total momentum before collision = 1800 + 50 = 1850 kgm/s

Let's assume that they move together after collision. Then,

1850 = ( 600 + 100 ) V

1850 = 700V

V = 1850 / 700

V = 2.64285 m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the shark after collision is 2.64 m/ s approximately

What distance is covered by an airplane traveling at a velocity of 660 miles per hour in 3.5 hours?
N76 [4]

As per the question, the velocity of the airplane [v] = 660 miles per hour.

The total time taken by airplane [t] = 3.5 hours.

We are asked to determine the total distance travelled by the airplane during that period.

The distance covered [ S] by a body is the product of velocity with the time.

Mathematically distance covered = velocity × total time

                                                      S = v × t

                                                        = 660 miles/hour ×3.5 hours

                                                        = 2310 miles.

Hence, the total distance travelled by the airplane in 3.5 hour is 2310 miles.

A sound has a sound level of 30 dB. Its intensity is what multiple of the standard reference level for intensities?
arsen [322]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

1000th multiple of the standard reference level for intensities.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sound intensity level (β), measured in decibels, of a sound with an intensity of I is defined as follows;

β = 10 log (I / I₀)       --------------------(i)

Where;

I₀ = reference intensity

Given from the question;

β = sound level = 30dB

Substitute this value into equation (i) as follows;

30 = 10 log (I / I₀)

Divide both sides by 3;

3 = log (I / I₀)

Take antilog of both sides;

10^(3) = (I / I₀)

1000 = I / I₀

Solve for I;

I = 1000I₀

Therefore the intensity of the sound is 1000 times the standard reference level for intensities (I₀)
