The blood flow rate through the aorta is measured to be 104.1 cm^3/s, and an adult is measured to have 4.93 L of blood. How long

does it take for all of your blood to pass through the aorta?
If the adult's aorta has a diamter of 1.85 cm, what is the speed of blood as it flows through the aorta?

Answer:

a)time t = 47.4s

b)speed v = 38.7cm/s

Explanation:

Given:

Total volume of blood = 4.93L × 1000cm^3/L = 4930cm^3

Volumetric rate of flow = 104.1cm^3/s

a) Time taken for all the blood to pass through the aorta is:

Time t = total volume/ volumetric rate

t = 4930/104.1

t = 47.4s

b) Given that the diameter of the aorta is 1.85cm.

V = Av

Where V = Volumetric rate

A = area of aorta

v = speed of blood

v = V/A ...1

Area of a circular aorta = πr^2 = (πd^2)/4

d = 1.85cm

A = (π×1.85^2)/4

A = 2.69cm^2

From equation 1.

v = V/A = 104.1/2.69

v = 38.7 cm/s

1)a persons ________ will change if they move from the earth to the moon
fgiga [73]

A person's weight will change if they move from the earth to the moon. This does not however, change the person's mass. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, and volume is how much space it takes up. On the moon, there is a lighter gravitational pull on said person, so they will not weigh as much if they stepped on a scale.

For a caffeinated drink with a caffeine mass percent of 0.65% and a density of 1.00 g/mL, how many mL of the drink would be requ
slava [35]

Explanation:

First we will convert the given mass from lb to kg as follows.

        157 lb = 157 lb \times \frac{1 kg}{2.2046 lb}

                   = 71.215 kg

Now, mass of caffeine required for a person of that mass at the LD50 is as follows.

         180 \frac{mg}{kg} \times 71.215 kg

         = 12818.7 mg

Convert the % of (w/w) into % (w/v) as follows.

      0.65% (w/w) = \frac{0.65 g}{100 g}

                           = \frac{0.65 g}{(\frac{100 g}{1.0 g/ml})}

                           = \frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}

Therefore, calculate the volume which contains the amount of caffeine as follows.

   12818.7 mg = 12.8187 g = \frac{12.8187 g}{\frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}}

                       = 1972 ml

Thus, we can conclude that 1972 ml of the drink would be required to reach an LD50 of 180 mg/kg body mass if the person weighed 157 lb.

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

2.837% less than actual value.

Explanation:

Based on given information let's calculate our value.

S = Vxt = 331m/s x 5s = 1655m, that is the total distance that sound would travel in 5 seconds.

1mile = 1609.34meters.

percentage error is.

\frac{actual-calculated}{actual} *100 = \frac{1609.34-1655}{1609.34} *100 = -2.83%

negative indicates less than actual value.

if we ignore air resistance the mass of an object does not affect the rate at which it accelerate why?​
quester [9]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on an object is independent of the mass of the object. This is so because, the acceleration due to gravity depends only on the radius of the earth and the mass of the earth.

As a result of this, all objects are accelerated to the same extent and should reach the ground at the same time when released from a height as long as other forces other than gravity are not at work.
