The buildup of plaque on the walls of an artery may decrease its diameter from 1.1cm to 0.75 cm. If the speed of blood flow is 1

5 cm/s, before reaching the region of plaque buildup, find the speed (in cm/s) of the blood flow. [Express the answer in ONE decimal place]

Answer:

v₂ = 32.4 cm/s

Explanation:

From the continuity equation it is clear that:

Volume Flow Rate Before Plaque = Volume Flow Rate In Plaque

Q₁ = Q₂

A₁v₁ = A₂v₂

where,

A₁ = Area of artery before plaque build up = πd²/4 = π(1.1 cm)²/4 = 0.95 cm²

A₂ = Area of artery with plaque build up = πd²/4 = π(0.75 cm)²/4 = 0.44 cm²

v₁ = velocity of blood flow in artery before plaque region = 15 cm/s

v₂ = velocity of blood in artery in plaque region = ?

Therefore,

(0.95 cm²)(15 cm/s) = (0.44 cm²)(v₂)

v₂ = (14.25 cm³/s)/(0.44 cm²)

<u>v₂ = 32.4 cm/s</u>

Which characteristic does an object with a constant acceleration always have?
Alexus [3.1K]

By definition, speed is the integral of acceleration with respect to time.

We have then:

v = \int\limits^t_0 {a} \, dt

As the acceleration is constant, then integrating we have:

v = a*t + vo

Where,

vo: constant of integration that corresponds to the initial velocity

We observe then that the speed varies linearly when the acceleration is constant .

Therefore, for constant acceleration, the velocity is changing.

Answer:

an object with a constant acceleration always have:

A. changing velocity

"A 78-year-old woman has a mean arterial pressure of 120 mm Hg and a heart rate of 60 beats/min. She has a stroke volume of 50 m
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

0.04 mm Hg / mL / min .

Explanation:

Arterial pressure = 120 mm Hg

right atrial pressure = 0 mm Hg

Drop in pressure due to peripheral resistance = 120 mm Hg

volume of cardiac output per minute = 3000 mL/min

total  peripheral resistance

= 120 / 3000 mm Hg / mL / min

= 0.04 mm Hg / mL / min .

What will be the pressure exerterd by the 0bject if 4000n is acting on an area of 50msqure
Ivahew [28]
<h3>Given, </h3>

Force,F = 4000 N

Area,a = 50 m²

<h3>We know that, </h3>

Pressure = Force/Area

★ Putting the values in the above formula,we get:

\sf \rightarrow \: pressure =  \dfrac{4000}{50}

\sf \rightarrow pressure = 80 \: N {m}^{ - 2}
