The question is incomplete. The complete question is  :

The pressure difference, Δp, acK_uross a partial blockage in an artery (called a stenosis) is approximated by the equation :

$\Delta p=K_v\frac{\mu V}{D}+K_u\left(\frac{A_0}{A_1}-1\right)^2 \rho V^2$

Where V is the blood velocity, μ the blood viscosity {FT/L2}, ρ the blood density {M/L3}, D the  artery diameter, A_0 the area of the unobstructed artery, and A1 the area of the stenosis.  Determine the dimensions of the constants K_v and K_u. Would this equation be valid in any  system of units?

Solution :

From the dimension homogeneity, we require :

$\Delta p=K_v\frac{\mu V}{D}+K_u\left(\frac{A_0}{A_1}-1\right)^2 \rho V^2$

Here, x means dimension of x. i.e.

$[ML^{-1}T^{-2}]=\frac{[K_v][ML^{-1}T^{-1}][LT^{-1}]}{[L]}+[K_u][1][ML^{-3}][L^2T^{-2}]$

                    $=[K_v][ML^{-1}T^{-2}]+[K_u][ML^{-1}T^{-2}]$

So, $[K_u]=[K_v]=[1 ]=$ dimensionless

So, K_u and K_v  are dimensionless constants.

This equation will be working in any system of units. The constants K_u and K_v will be different for different system of units.

Which disadvantage of nuclear power use poses the greatest threat to the environment?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

The correct answer is The storage and management of radioactive wastes

Explanation:

In general, nuclear reactions (changes in the nucleus of an atom such as fission) release a lot of energy including a lot of heat. Moreover, this heat is used by humans to obtain electricity and other types of energy, which is known as a nuclear power. This type of power is considered positive because it does not emit carbon and it is quite efficient.

However, in most cases, it is a threat to the environment and living beings because storing and managing the wastes of this type of power is difficult and expensive. Indeed, dealing with the wastes of nuclear power requires complex infrastructure, and any accident or leaking leads to serious consequences from the death of those exposed to the wastes to permanent loss of diversity or changes in nearby areas.
