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>

A long distance runner sees the finish line and accelerates at a rate in 1.2 m/s2 for
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: he did travel 15 meters.

Explanation:

We have the data:

Acceleration = a = 1.2 m/s^2

Time lapes = 3 seconds

Initial speed = 3.2 m/s.

Then we start writing the acceleration:

a(t) = 1.2 m/s^2

now for the velocity, we integrate over time:

v(t) = (1.2 m/s^2)*t + v0

with v0 = 3.2 m/s

v(t) = (1.2 m/s^2)*t + 3.2 m/s

For the position, we integrate again.

p(t) = (1/2)*(1.2 m/s^2)*t^2 + 3.2m/s*t + p0

Because we want to know the displacementin those 3 seconds ( p(3s) - p(0s)) we can use p0 = 0m

Then the displacement at t = 3s will be equal to p(3s).

p(3s) = (1/2)*(1.2 m/s^2)*(3s)^2 + 3.2m/s*3s = 15m

Sallys physical education teacher timed her run and recorded the time and distance in the table below. What is her average speed
Fudgin [204]
Answer: B) 2.5 m/s

Explanation: Find the average of the time and distance, and see how far they go in only 1 second.


1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15
15 divided by 5 = 3

3 seconds

2 + 5 + 7 + 10 + 12 = 36
36 divided by 5 = 7.2


7.2m per 3 seconds.

7.2 divided by 3 = 2.4

Therefore, the answer is technically 2.4m/s
