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

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

a. slope=rise/run

rise=0.02

run=-2

determined using the point (3,0.08) and (1,0.1) on the graph

slope=0.02/-2

= -0.01 or -1/100

b.area= area of trapizoid+ rectangle

((0.07+0.11)÷2)×4+1×0.07

0.36+0.07

=0.43$

c. the area represent the total cost after 5 hours

klio [65]

Answer:

The acceleration of Abbie is half of the Zak's.

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration of an object on a circular path is given by :

a=r\omega^2

Two children are riding on a merry-go-round that is rotating with a constant angular speed. Let r_1 is distance of Abbie from the merry-go-round and r_2 is distance of Zak's from the merry-go-round. Acceleration of Abbie is :

a_1=r_1\omega^2 ...... (1)

r_1=1\ m

Acceleration of Zak's is :

a_2=r_2\omega^2 .......(2)

r_2=2\ m

Dividing equation (1) and (2) we get :

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{r_1}{r_2}\\\\\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\a_1=\dfrac{a_2}{2}

So, the acceleration of Abbie is half of the Zak's.
