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) The electric potential due to a point charge is given by V = kq⁄r where q is the charge, r is the distance from q and k = 8.

Answer:

a)  [volts] = [N m / C],

b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential

c) the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines

Explanation:

a) find the units of the volt

the electric potential energy is

             V = k q / r

             V = [N m² / C²] C / m

              V = [N m / C]

The electric potential is defined as

             V = E .s

             V = [N / C] [m]

             V = [N m / C] = [volt]

we see that in the two expressions the same result is obtained therefore the volt is

            [volts] = [N m / C]

b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential surfaces, the great utility of these lines or surfaces is that a face can be displaced on it without doing work.

c) The electric potential is defined as the gradient of the electric field

             v =  - \frac{dE}{dx} i^

therefore the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines

Answer:

1.It's the world's most famous equation, but what does it really mean? "Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." On the most basic level, the equation says that energy and mass (matter) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing.

2.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei.

3.In nuclear reactions, mass is never conserved—some mass is exchanged for energy and energy for mass. Nuclear reactions take place in an atom's nucleus. In a spontaneous nuclear reaction, such as radioactive decay, mass is "lost" and appears as energy in the form of particles or gamma rays.

4.In a nuclear reaction, mass decreases and energy increases. The sum of mass and energy is always conserved in a nuclear reaction.

5.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei.
