What occurs when a swimmer pushes through water to swim

1 answer:

6 0

When we swim we apply force and push the water backward with the help of our hands. In response, The water pushes us forward with an equal force. Thus, in order to move forward and swim, the swimmer lushes the water backward. Newton's 3rd law of motion

There is a limit to how long your neck can be. If your neck were too long, no blood would reach your brain! What is the maximum

Answer:

The maximum height a person's brain could be above his heart is: 1.28 meter.

Explanation:

We need to know what is the normal blood pressure ours hearts so there is a rate: 120/80 (mmHg) and the average will be: 100 (mmHg) and using the Pascal law that relate pressure, density, gravity and height like: $P_{2} = pgh_{1} - pgh_{2} + P_{1}$ , where P is pressure, p is density, g is the gravity acceleration and h is the height. Now we can find the height and delta of pressure will be: P2-P1 = 100 (mmHg), knowing that 1(mmHg) is equal to 133 Pa, we can do the convertion to 13332.2 (Pa), now because the units of Pascal are Newton/(meter^2). Then we solve the formula to get the height: $\frac{P2-P1}{pg} =h$ so we get: $\frac{13332.2}{(1060*9,81)}=Height=1.28(meters).$
