Answer:

The pressure difference will increase by the factor of 1.75

Explanation:

For constant flow rate, coefficient of viscosity, length of the vessel and the pressure difference is inversely proportional to the fourth power of the radius of the blood vessel

Apply the principle of Poiseuille’s law.

Q = (P2 - P1)/R

Pls check the attached file for step by step solution of the question. It is submitted in this way as typing the equation may not be explanatory.
