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>

What do changes in the biosphere, rising sea levels, drought and desertification, regional changes in temperature, and melting g
horrorfan [7]
Alright I'm not an expert on this, so you'll probably have to verify it with someone more qualified, but here's my idea (the summary is underlined at the bottom, but I added an explanation just because):
Humans are increasing the CO2 levels in our atmosphere, trapping a lot of the sun's heat in. Increased heat increases the chance of desertification and drought, and also causes regional temperatures to go up. The sun's rays are also hitting the icecaps, but the ice itself reflects most of the sun. However, the ocean absorbs the heat, causing the water around the ice to become warmer, just enough to cause them to melt a bit. This melting makes the ocean level rise. <u>So to wrap up, humans are changing the biosphere causing the Earth to warm up, the icecaps and glaciers to melt, regional temperatures to increase, and the chance of desertification to also increase.</u>
It took me FOREVER to write and word this well so I hope this helps. =)

Placing the north pole of a magnet near the south pole of another magnet results in:
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

An attractive force between the magnets. A is the correct answer if it was the north pole facing another north pole magnet the answer would have been a repulsive force between the magnets because the north pole of a magnet does not attract instead it separates from each other which is a repulsive force the best answer is A.

Explanation:

the southern pole of a magnet is a positive force while the northern pole of a magnet is negative .

Note: Magnet can attract each other only when they are facing the opposite directions a north pole will attract a south pole; the magnets pull on each other. But the two north poles will push each other away.
