The volume flow rate in an artery supplying the brain is 4.00 10-6 m3/s. (a) If the radius of the artery is 4.50 10-3 m, determi

ne the average blood speed. m/s (b) Find the average blood speed at a constriction in the artery if the constriction reduces the radius by a factor of 4. Assume that the volume flow rate is the same as that in part (a).

Answer:

(a) 0.063 m/s

(b) 1.01 m/s

Explanation:

rate of volume flow, V = 4 x 10^-6 m^3/s

(a) radius, r = 4.5 x 10^-3 m

Let the speed of blood is v.

So, V = A x v

where A be the area of crossection of  artery

4 x 10^-6 = 3.14 x 4.5 x 10^-3 x 4.5 x 10^-3 x v

v = 0.063 m/s

Thus, the speed of flow of blood is 0.063 m/s .

(b) Now r' = r / 4 = 4.5 /4 x 10^-3 m = 1.125 x 10^-3 m

Let the speed is v'.

So, V = A' x v'

4 x 10^-6 = 3.14 x 1.125 x 10^-3 x 1.125 x 10^-3 x v'

v' = 1.01 m/s

Thus, the speed of flow of blood is 1.01 m/s .

Bingel [31]
The solution for this problem is:
Let u denote speed. 

Equating momentum before and after collision: 
= 0.060 * 40 = (1.5 + 0.060) u 
= 2.4 = 1.56 u
= 2.4 / 1.56 = 1.56 u / 1.56
= 1.6 m / s is the answer for this question. This is the speed after the collision.

PROJECTILE MOTION-Why isn't there any accelertion in the x direction while there is an acceleration of -g in the y direction? ..
Ahat [919]
There is no acceleration of g in the x direction because the gravitational acceleration points downward. Also, on most studies we ignore the tidal forces since we are dealing with small bodies compared to the size of the earth.

Man made objects that spread an impulse over a large amount of time
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Examples of man-made objects that spread an impulse over a large amount of time are "airbags" in vehicles and "arrestor beds" (for trucks).

Explanation:

The question above is highly related to the topic about "Impulse" in Physics.

"Impulse"<em> refers to an object's change in momentum (the amount of motion in an object) when a force acts upon it for an interval time.</em> When it comes to providing safety to people when it comes to vehicular crashes, impulse plays a vital role.

Let's take the example of airbags in vehicles. Once a vehicle collides with another object, the driver is carried by a forward motion. Without airbags, the time is normally shorter for the driver to be stopped by the windshield. This results to a greater force. However, with the presence of air-bags, the driver will hit the airbag, instead of the windshield. <u>This will lengthen the time of the impact, thus reducing the force.</u>

Another example are the arrestor beds for trucks. Arrestor beds have been designed in order for trucks to stop, since it's hard to maneuver them. <u>With the help of arrestor beds, trucks are able to come to a stop with a longer time interval, but decreased force.</u>
