The aorta pumps blood away from the heart at about 40 cm/s and has a radius of about 1.0 cm. It then branches into many capillar

ies, each with a radius of about 5×10−4 cm carrying blood at a speed of 0.10 cm/s. How many capillaries are there?
a. 1.6×109
b. 16
c. 8.0×105
d. 1.6×105

Answer:

  a.  1.6×10^9

Step-by-step explanation:

The blood volume flowing per second is the same in each vessel, so we have ...

  r_1^2v_1=n\cdot r_2^2v_2\\\\1^2\cdot 40=n\cdot (5\times 10^{-4})^2\cdot 0.1\\\\\dfrac{40}{2.5\times 10^{-8}}=n=1.6\times 10^9

There are about 1.6×10^9 capillaries.

A pair of dice is rolled. Find the probability for P(not 2 or not 12)
irakobra [83]

Answer:

There’s only one way to get 12 when 2 dice are tossed, both have to equal 6. There are 6 ways tossing a single die can come out (1,2,3,4,5,6), so if you toss dice, the second die could have any one of six values with each of the numbers that could result from the first toss (e.g., 1 from die 1 and 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 from die 2). So, considering there are 6 ways to fill each of two slots, there are 6 x 6 = 36 possible outcomes of tossing two dice. Only one of them equals 12, so p(12 given 2 dice tossed) = 1/36 = 0.02777777777778.
