Calculate the difference in blood pressur toes of a human by treating the blood as a static fluid (this is a very crude approxim

ation because there is a pump which is making the blcod flow). Assume that the person is 187 cm tall and that the density of bloc d is 1060 kg/m3 use g=10 m/s2). For comparison, normal blood pressure is about 880 mm Hg = 117 kPa, this comprises 760 mm Hg of atmospheric pressure and 120 mm Hg of relative pressure
The difference in blood pressure is ______ kPa

Answer:

19.822 kPa

Explanation:

$\rho$ = Density of blood = 1060 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

h = Height of person = 187 cm

The pressure difference would be given by the relation (as there are no other forces to be considered)

$\Delta P=\rho gh\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=1060\times 10\times 1.87\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=19822\ Pa$

The difference in blood pressure is 19.822 kPa

A block with mass m =6.4 kg is hung from a vertical spring. When the mass hangs in equilibrium, the spring stretches x = 0.28 m.

Zanzabum

Answer

given,

mass of block (m)= 6.4 Kg

spring is stretched to distance, x = 0.28 m

initial velocity = 5.1 m/s

a) computing weight of spring

k x = m g

$k = \dfrac{mg}{x}$

$k = \dfrac{6.4 \times 9.8}{0.28}$

k = 224 N/m

b) $f = \dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}$

$\omega = \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}= \sqrt{\dfrac{224}{6.4}} = 5.92 \ rad/s$

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{224}{6.4}}$

$f =0.94\ Hz$

c) $v_b = -v cos \omega t$

$v_b = -5.1 \times cos (5.92 \times 0.42)$

$v_b = 4.04\ m/s$

d) $a_{max} = v \omega$

$a_{max} = 4.04 \times 5.92$

$a_{max} =23.94\ m/s^2$

e) $Y =- A sin (\omega t)$

$A = \dfrac{v}{\omega}$

$A = \dfrac{4.04}{5.92}$

A = 0.682 m

$Y =- 0.682 \times sin (5.92 \times 0.42)$

$Y =- 0.42$

Force = $m \omega^2 |Y|$

= $6.4 \times 5.92^2\times 0.42$

F = 94.20 N

MGS and later orbiters found spectral evidence for what minerals on the Martian surface? Check all that apply.

slamgirl [31]

Mars Global Surveyors (MGS) and later orbiters found the following minerals on the Martian surface;

Phyllosilicates

Carbonate
Sulfates
Iron oxide

The Mars Global Surveyors (MGS) and later orbiters suggest that the Martian crust contains a higher percentage of volatile elements such as Sulphur and chlorine than the Earth's crust does.

These scientists also conclude that the most abundant chemical elements in the Martian crust are those found in Igneous rock.

These elements include the following;

Silicon,
Oxygen,
Iron,
Magnesium,
Aluminum,
Calcium, and
Potassium.

They also, suggest that hydrogen is found in ice (water) while carbon is found in carbon dioxide and carbonates.

From the given options the minerals found in Martian surface include;

Phyllosilicates ------ these are sheet of silicate minerals

Carbonate
Sulfates
iron oxide

The net torce on an object moving with constant speed in circular motion is in which direction?

aleksley [76]

The correct answer is C) towards the center of the circle.

Although the object is moving at a constant speed it is constantly accelerating due to the constant change in direction as it describes the circular path. This causes a constant change in velocity as velocity is a vector quantity.

For the object to maintain the circular path there has to be centripetal force acting on the object and this centripetal force is directed towards the center of the circle.
