The aorta is approximately 25 mm in diameter. The mean pressure there is about 100 mmHg and the blood flows through the aorta at

approximately 60 cm/s. Suppose that at a certain point a portion of the aorta is blocked so that the cross-sectional area is reduced to 3/4 of its original area. The density of blood is 1060 kg/m3.
(a) How fast is the blood moving just as it enters the blocked portion of the aorta? (in cm/s)

(b) What is the gauge pressure (in mmHg) of the blood just as it has entered the blocked portion of the aorta? (in mmHg)

Answer:

Explanation:

25 mm diameter

r₁  = 12.5 x 10⁻³ m radius.

cross sectional area =  a₁

Pressure P₁  = 100 x 10⁻³ x 13.6 x 9.8 Pa

a )

velocity of blood v₁ = .6 m /s

Cross sectional area at blockade = 3/4 a₁

Velocity at blockade area = v₂

As liquid is in-compressible

a₁v₁ = a₂v₂

a₁ x .6 m /s  = 3/4 a₁ v₂

v₂ = .8m/s

b )

Applying Bernauli's theorem formula

P₁ + 1/2 ρv₁² =  P₂ +  1/2 ρv₂²

100 x 10⁻³ x 13.6 x10³x 9.8 + 1/2 X 1060 x .6² = P₂ +  1/2x 1060 x .8²

13328 +190.8 = P₂ + 339.2

P₂ = 13179.6 Pa

= 13179 / 13.6 x 10³ x 9.8 m of Hg

P₂ =  .09888 m of Hg

98.88 mm of Hg

Question 13 of 20
Dominik [7]

Answer:

B. It has a central nucleus composed of 29 protons and 35 neutrons,

surrounded by an electron cloud containing 29 electrons.

Explanation:

Protons and neutrons are the only subatomic particles with mass, and they are located in the nucleus. If this atom has an atomic number of 29 and is copper, it must have 29 protons (protons define which element is being observed). This means all remaining mass is from neutrons. 64-29 = 35.

Electrons have no mass and orbit the nucleus in the electron cloud. Since this copper atom is neutral (we are not told it has a charge), there must be an equal number of protons and electrons.

Conductors have ___<br> resistance.
vazorg [7]

Answer:

little/no

Explanation:

Conductors are materials, which conduct electricity and/or heat. That means, that their resistance to such energy is so little, that an electric current is able to pass through.

Two equally charged, 1.00 g spheres are placed with 2.00 cm between their centers. when released, each begins to accelerate at 2
Leya [2.2K]
1) Force = m*a = 1.00 g * (1kg / 1000 g) * 225 m/s^2 = 0.225 N

2) Charge

Force = K (charge)^2 /(distance)^2 => charge = √ [Force * distance^2 / k]

k = 9.00 * 10^9 N*m^2 / C^2

charge = √ [0.225 N * (0.02 m)^2 / 9.00* 10^9 N*m^2 / C^2 ]

charge = 0.0000001 C = 0.0001 mili C

What minimum speed must the rocket have just before impact in order to save the explorer's life?
34kurt
<span>Answer: Assuming that I understand the geometry correctly, the combine package-rocket will move off the cliff with only a horizontal velocity component. The package will then fall under gravity traversing the height of the cliff (h) in a time T given by h = 0.5*g*T^2 However, the speed of the package-rocket system must be sufficient to cross the river in that time v2 = L/T Conservation of momentum says that m1*v1 = (m1 + m2)*v2 where m1 is the mass of the rocket, v1 is the speed of the rocket, m2 is the mass of the package, and v2 is the speed of the package-rocket system. Expressing v2 in terms of v1 v2 = m1*v1/(m1 + m2) and then expressing the time in terms of v1 T = (m1 + m2)*L/(m1*v1) substituting T in the first expression h = 0.5*g*(m1 + m2)^2*L^2/(m1*v1)^2 solving for v1, the speed before impact is given by v1 = sqrt(0.5*g/h)*(m1 + m2)*L/m1</span>
