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

A 120 g, 8.0-cm-diameter gyroscope is spun at 1000 rpm and allowed to precess. What is the precession period?
dolphi86 [110]

To solve this problem we will derive the expression of the precession period from the moment of inertia of the given object. We will convert the units that are not in SI, and finally we will find the precession period with the variables found. Let's start defining the moment of inertia.

I = MR^2

Here,

M = Mass

R = Radius of the hoop

The precession frequency is given as

\Omega = \frac{Mgd}{I\omega}

Here,

M = Mass

g= Acceleration due to gravity

d = Distance of center of mass from pivot

I = Moment of inertia

\omega= Angular velocity

Replacing the value for moment of inertia

\Omega= \frac{MgR}{MR^2 \omega}

\Omega = \frac{g}{R\omega}

The value for our angular velocity is not in SI, then

\omega = 1000rpm (\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev})(\frac{1min}{60s})

\omega = 104.7rad/s

Replacing our values we have that

\Omega = \frac{9.8m/s^2}{(8*10^{-2}m)(104.7rad)}

\Omega = 1.17rad/s

The precession frequency is

\Omega = \frac{2\pi rad}{T}

T = \frac{2\pi rad}{\Omega}

T = \frac{2\pi}{1.17}

T = 5.4 s

Therefore the precession period is 5.4s

A small child has a wagon with a mass of 10 kilograms. The child pulls on the wagon with a force of
Sholpan [36]
F=ma
where:
F - force
m - mass
a - acceleration 

We transform this formula to get a:
a= \frac{F}{m}
a=\frac{2}{10}\frac{N}{kg}=0.2\frac{m}{s^{2}}
