The buildup of plaque on the walls of an artery may decrease its diameter from 1.1 cm to 0.90 cm. The speed of blood flow was 17

cm/s before reaching the region of plaque buildup.
A). Find the speed of blood flow within the plaque region. This was 25 cm/s.
B.) Find the pressure drop within the plaque region. I got 17.808 but says I'm wrong. Am I missing a step?

Answer

Initial radius of the artery is (1.1 cm) / 2 = 0.55 cm

final radius of the artery is (0.90 cm) / 2 = 0.45 cm

initial velocity of the blood is 17 cm/s

Using  equation of continuity is

                                      A₁v₁=A₂v₂

                                 π r₁² x v₁ = π r₂² x v₂

                                  r₁² x v₁ = r₂² x v₂

                                  0.55² x 17 =0.45² x v₂

                                        v₂=25.39 cm/s

Bernoulli's equation is

P_1 - P_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)

rho is the density of blood = 1060 kg/m^3

P_1 - P_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1060 \times (0.254^2-0.17^2)

P_1 - P_2 =18.87\ Pa

he atomic radii of Li and O2- ions are 0.068 and 0.140 nm, respectively. (a) Calculate the force of attraction in newtons betwee
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

a

 F =  -1.07 *10^{-8} \  N

b

F_r  =  1.07 *10^{-8} \  N

Explanation:

Generally the force of attraction between this two irons is mathematically represented as

F =  \frac{k *  [Q_{Li}  ] * [Q_{O}  ]  }{ r^2}

Here k is known as the proportionality constant with value k = 2.31  *  10^ {-28} J \cdot m

substituting -2 for Q_{O} i.e the charge on oxygen , +1 for Q_{Li} i.e the charge on Lithium and [0.140 + 0.068 ] nm= 0.208 nm =  0.208*10^{-9} for r

So

F =  \frac{ 2.31  *  10^ {-28}*  +1   * -2   }{ ( 0.208*10^{-9} )^2   }

F =  -1.07 *10^{-8} \  N

Generally the force of repulsion will be the magnitude but different direction to the force o attraction

So Force of repulsionn is

F_r  =  1.07 *10^{-8} \  N

As the mass of an object increases so does its gravitational force. <br> a. True <br> b. False
vichka [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Gravity force is constant.

There some places on Earth that gravity has a variation, but in general, it is the same everywhere.

If you analyze the equation for the weight, which is the action of the gravity to mass, you'll see that W=mg, where m is the mass and g, is gravity.

If you increase the mass, what you are increasing is weight and not gravity.
