During a marathon race, a runner’s blood flow increases to 10.0 times her resting rate. Her blood’s viscosity has dropped to 95.

0% of its normal value, and the blood pressure difference across the circulatory system has increased by 50.0%. By what factor has the average radii of her blood vessels increased?

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the Poiseuilles laminar flow law, with which the stationary laminar flow ΦV of an incompressible and uniformly viscous liquid (also called Newtonian fluid) can be determined through a cylindrical tube of constant circular section. Mathematically this can be expressed:

Q = \frac{\Delta P \pi r^4}{8\eta l}

Where:

\eta_i = are the viscosities of the concrete before and after the increase

l = Length of the vessel

r_1, R_2 = Radio of the vessel before and after the increase

\Delta P= Change in the pressure

Q_{1,2} = The rates of flow before and after he increase

Our values are given as:

Q_2 = 10Q_1 \rightarrow 10 times her resting rate

\eta_2 = 0.95\eta_1 95% of its normal value

\Delta P_2 = 1.5\Delta P_1 Increase of 50%

Plugging known information to get

Q_1 = \frac{\Delta P \pi r^4}{8\eta l}

Q_1 8\eta_1 l = \Delta P_1 \pi r_1^4

r_1^4 = \frac{Q_1 8\eta_1 l}{\Delta P_1 \pi}

r_1 = (\frac{Q_1 8\eta_1 l}{\Delta P_1 \pi})^{1/4}

r_2 = (\frac{Q_2 8\eta_2 l}{\Delta P_2 \pi})^{1/4}

r_2 = (\frac{10Q_18 \times 0.95\eta_1 l}{1.5\Delta P_1 \pi})^{1/4}

r_2 = 1.586r_1

Therefore the factor of average radio of her blood vessels increased is 1.589 the initial factor after the increase.

What are the four forms that water takes when it returns to earth from the clouds?
Marina CMI [18]
Precipitation from the sky to the earth can come in several forms. Four types are: 1) Rain 2) Snow 3) Sleet (think of a more liquidity slushy snow) 4) Hail (pretty much solid chunks of ice)

Some neodymium glass lasers can provide 100TW of power in 1.0 ns pulses at a wavelength of 0.26 micrometers. how much energy is
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

 E = 10⁵ J

Explanation:

given,

Power, P = 100 TW

           = 100 x 10¹² W

time, t = 1 ns

           = 1 x 10⁻⁹ s

The energy of a single pulse is:-

Energy = Power x time

 E = P t

 E = 100 x 10¹² x 1 x 10⁻⁹

 E = 10⁵ J

The energy contained in a single pulse is equal to 10⁵ J

The opening to a cave is a tall, 30.0-cm-wide crack. A bat is preparing to leave the cave emits a 30.0 kHz ultrasonic chirp. How
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The value is  w =  7.54 \  m        

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The length of the crack is  a =  0.3 \  m

     The  frequency is  f =  30.0 \ kHz =  30 *10^{3} \  Hz

      The distance outside the cave that is being consider is  D =  100 \  m

      The speed of sound is v_s =  340 \  m/s

Generally the wavelength of the wave is mathematically represented as

        \lambda =  \frac{v}f}

=>     \lambda =  \frac{340 }{30*10^{3}}

=>     \lambda = 0.0113 \ m/s

Generally for a  single slit the path difference between the interference patterns of the sound wave and the center  is mathematically represented as  

          y =  \frac{ n *  \lambda * D}{a}

=>     y =  \frac{ 1  *  0.0113 * 100}{0.3}

=>     y = 3.77 \  m

Generally the width of the sound beam is mathematically represented as

         w =  2 *  y

=>      w =  2 *  3.77

=>      w =  7.54 \  m

A current cannot produce a magnetic field. *<br><br> True or false
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

False, as a magnetic field is generated whenever current travels through a conductor.

An electromagnet consists of a coil of wire wrapped around a bar of iron. The coil and iron bar get magnetized when electric current flows through the wire. An electromagnet also has north and south magnetic poles. The magnetic field is strongest at either pole of the magnet.
