With countercurrent flow, diffusion happened in all regions of the filter. Explain why

Physics
1 answer:
jeka943 years ago

Answer:

When the blood and the dialysate are flowing in the same direction, as the the dialysate and the blood move away from the region of higher concentration of the urea, to a region distant from the source, the concentration of urea in the blood stream and in the dialysis reach equilibrium and diffusion across the semipermeable membrane stops within the higher filter regions such as II, III, IV or V

However, for counter current flow, as the concentration of the urea in the blood stream becomes increasingly lesser the, it encounters increasingly unadulterated dialysate coming from the dialysate source, such that diffusion takes place in all regions of the filter

A uniform meterstick of mass 0.20 kg is pivoted at the 40 cm mark. where should one hang a mass of 0.50 kg to balance the stick?
Tcecarenko [31]
The weight of the meterstick is:
W=mg=0.20 kg \cdot 9.81 m/s^2 = 1.97 N
and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance 
d_1 = 0.50 m - 0.40 m=0.10 m
from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:
M_w = W d_1 = (1.97 N)(0.10 m)=0.20 Nm

To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:
(mg) d_2 = 0.20 Nm
from which we find the value of d2:
d_2 =  \frac{0.20 Nm}{mg}= \frac{0.20 Nm}{(0.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)}=0.04 m

So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.

What is the magnitude of the momentum of a 3400 kg airplane traveling at a speed of 450 miles per hour?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of momentum of the airplane is 6.83\times 10^5\ kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the airplane, m = 3400 kg

Speed of the airplane, v = 450 miles per hour

Since, 1 mile per hour = 0.44704 m/s

v = 201.16 m/s

We need to find the magnitude of momentum of the airplane. It is given by the product of mas and velocity such that,

p=mv

p=3400\ kg\times 201.16 \ m/s

p=683944\ kg-m/s

or

p=6.83\times 10^5\ kg-m/s

So, the magnitude of momentum of the airplane is 6.83\times 10^5\ kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
