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.

A 1400 kg car traveling at 17.0 m/s to the south collides with a 4700 kg truck that is at rest. The car and truck stick together
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Final velocity = 7.677 m/s

KE before crash = 202300 J

KE after crash = 182,702.62 J

Explanation:

We are given;

m1 = 1400 kg

m2 = 4700 kg

u1 = 17 m/s

u2 = 0 m/s

Using formula for inelastic collision, we have;

m1•u1 + m2•u2 = (m1 + m2)v

Where v is final velocity after collision.

Plugging in the relevant values;

(1400 × 17) + (4700 × 0) = (1400 + 1700)v

23800 = 3100v

v = 23800/3100

v = 7.677 m/s

Kinetic energy before crash = ½ × 1400 × 17² = 202300 J

Kinetic energy after crash = ½(1400 + 1700) × 7.677² = 182,702.62 J

PLEASE HELP!!!!!
never [62]

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

When a rockets thrusters push on the ground the ground pushes back on the rocket with equal force in the opposite direction. Hence the rocket takes off.

Newtons third law of motion states, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

A 1-kg rock is suspended from the tip of a horizontal meterstick at the 0-cm mark so that the meterstick barely balances like a
tigry1 [53]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass if the rock, m = 1 kg

It is  suspended from the tip of a horizontal meter stick at the 0-cm mark so that the meter stick barely balances like a seesaw when its fulcrum is at the 12.5-cm mark.

We need to find the mass of the meter stick. The force acting by the stone is

F = 1 × 9.8 = 9.8 N

Let W be the weight of the meter stick. If the net torque is zero on the stick then the stick does not move and it remains in equilibrium condition. So, taking torque about the pivot.

9.8\times 12.5=W\times (50-12.5)\\\\W=\dfrac{9.8\times 12.5}{37.5}

W = 3.266 N

The mass of the meters stick is :

m=\dfrac{W}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{3.266}{9.81}\\\\m=0.333\ kg

So, the mass of the meter stick is 0.333 kg.

Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?
SashulF [63]

In almost every case in nature, adding heat to a liquid
causes the density of the liquid to decrease.  That is,
when the liquid gets warmer, it expands and occupies
more space.

The one big exception to this rule is water ! 

Starting with a block of ice at zero°C (32°F), as the ice melts,
becomes water at zero°C, and all the way to 4°C (about 39°F),
its density increases all the way.   That is, it shrinks and occupies
less
volume as it goes from ice at zero°C to water at 4°C.

This sounds like an interesting but insignificant quirk ... until
you realize that if water didn't do this, then life on Earth would
be impossible !
