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.

Com que rapidez estará sendo feito trabalho elétrico num resistor de 10 ohms, percorrido por uma corrente elétrica de 5 A? Qual
34kurt

Poder = (resistencia) x (corrente)²

Poder = (10 ohms) x (5 A)²

<em>Poder = 250 watts </em>(250 Joule por segundo)

2 horas = 7,200 segundos

Energia = (250 joule/seg) x (7,200 seg)

<em>Energia = 1,800,000 Joules</em>

A 5 meter long ladder leans against a wall. The bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at the constant rate of 1 3 m/s.
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:9.75 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Length of ladder (L)=5 m

Foot the ladder is moving away with speed of \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=13 m/s

From diagram

x^2+y^2=L^2------1

at x=3

y^2=25-9=16

y=4 m

Now differentiating equation 1 w.r.t time

2x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}+2y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=0

x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=-y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

3\times 13=-4\times \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=-\frac{3\times 13}{4}=-9.75 m/s

negative indicates distance is decreasing with time

What Determines the amount of TE of an object
Luden [163]

Answer:

To find the volume of a rectangular object, measure the length, width and height. Multiply the length times the width and multiply the result by the height. The result is the volume. Give the result in cubic units, such as cubic centimeters.

A string attached to an airborne kite was maintained at an angle of 40.0 with the ground. if 120m of string was reeled in to ret
AleksAgata [21]
The hypotenuse is measured at 120 meters of string, and you need to solve for the leg of the triangle that is horizontal. The degree is 40, so use trigonometry to figure it out. 
Cosin (40) is equal to around .766 
Adjacent/Hypotenuse 
x/120 = cos40 
Answer: 91.92533. 
If you use 3 significant figures it should be 91.9 meters.
