The human heart is a powerful and extremely reliable pump. Each day it takes in and discharges about 7500 L of blood. Assume tha

t the work done by the heart is equal to the work required to lift this amount of blood a height equal to that of the average American female (1.63 m). The density (mass per unit volume) of blood is 1.05×103kg/m3.

The answers are:

a) Work=125,923.61J

b) Power=1.46watt

Why?

It seems that you forgot to write the questions of the problem, however, in order to help you, I will try to complete it.

The questions are:

a) How much work does the heart do in a day?

b) What is its power output in watts?

So, solving we have:

We need to convert from liter to cubic meters in order to use the given information, so:

1L=0.001m^{3}\\\\7500L*\frac{0.001m^{3} }{1L}=7.5m^{3}

Also, we need to find the mass given the density of the blood.

1050}\frac{kg}{m^{3}}*7.5m^{3}=7875kg

Now, calculating how much work does the heart do in a day, we have:

Work=Fd=mgh\\\\Work=7875kg*9.81\frac{m}{s^{2}}*1.63m=125,923.61J

Then, calculating what is the power output and its horsepower, we have:

Power=\frac{Work}{time}\\\\Power=\frac{125,923.61J}{86,400s}=1.46watt

Have a nice day!

How much momentum will a dumb-bell of mass 10 kg transfer
frosja888 [35]

We want to find how much momentum the dumbbell has at the moment it strikes the floor. Let's use this kinematics equation:

Vf² = Vi² + 2ad

Vf is the final velocity of the dumbbell, Vi is its initial velocity, a is its acceleration, and d is the height of its fall.

Given values:

Vi = 0m/s (dumbbell starts falling from rest)

a = 10m/s² (we'll treat downward motion as positive, this doesn't affect the result as long as we keep this in mind)

d = 80×10⁻²m

Plug in the values and solve for Vf:

Vf² = 2(10)(80×10⁻²)

Vf = ±4m/s

Reject the negative root.

Vf = 4m/s

The momentum of the dumbbell is given by:

p = mv

p is its momentum, m is its mass, and v is its velocity.

Given values:

m = 10kg

v = 4m/s (from previous calculation)

Plug in the values and solve for p:

p = 10(4)

p = 40kg×m/s
