Variations in the resistivity of blood can give valuable clues about changes in various properties of the blood. Suppose a medic

al device attaches two electrodes into a 1.5-mm-diameter vein at positions 5.0 cm apart. What is the blood resistivity if a 9.0 V potential difference causes a 230 μA current through the blood in the vein?

Answer:

Answer:

1.1 x 10^9 ohm metre

Explanation:

diameter = 1.5 mm

length, l = 5 cm

Potential difference, V = 9 V

current, i = 230 micro Ampere = 230 x 10^-6 A

radius, r = diameter / 2 = 1.5 / 2 = 0.75 x 10^-3 m

Let the resistivity is ρ.

Area of crossection

A = πr² = 3.14 x 0.75 x 0.75 x 10^-6 = 1.766 x 10^-6 m^2

Use Ohm's law to find the value of resistance

V =  i x R

9 = 230 x 10^-6 x R

R = 39130.4 ohm

Use the formula for the resistance

R=\rho \frac{l}{A}

\rho =\frac{RA}{l}

\rho =\frac{39130.4\times 0.05}{1.766\times 10^{-6}}

ρ = 1.1 x 10^9 ohm metre

Answer: Volume = 1080m^3

Explanation:

Given that the prism has a 15 m by 18 m rectangular base and a height of 4 m

Volume is the product of length, breath and height. That is

Volume = L × B × H

Where

L = 18 m

B = 15m

H = 4m

Using the formula above gives:

Volume V = 18 × 15 × 4

V = 1080 m^3
