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.

Answer:

ethical dilemmas or ethical paradox

Explanation:

Ethical dilemmas or ethical paradox or moral dilemma is a situation in which a difficult choice has to be made between two or more courses of action, either because the right course of action is not clear or because the right course of action carries some negative consequences. one example is selling a bad product so as not to loose your cost.

Waves of wavelength 24 cm and amplitude 3.0 em are used to create a standing wave. The distance from one node tothe next in the
NikAS [45]

Answer:

D. 12 cm

Explanation:

A node is a point on a standing wave that does not vibrate.

The nodes of a standing wave are shown in the following sketch.

The red dots are the nodes of the standing wave.

It is observed that the distance between two adjacent nodes is half the wavelength of the wave.

Therefore, if the wavelength of the wave is 24 cm, then the distance from one node to the net must be 24 / 2 = 12 cm.

Hence, choice D is the correct answer.

If the temperature at the surface of Earth (at sea level) is 100°F, what is the temperature at 2000 feet if the average lapse ra
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

107 °F

Explanation:

Given that

The temperature at sea level = 100°F

height ,h= 2000 feet

The average lapse rate = 3.5°F/1000 feet

Given that rise in temperature 3.5°F per 1000 feet.

1000 feet ⇒ 3.5°F

Given that 2000 feet

2000 feet ⇒ 3.5°F x 2 +100°F

2000 feet ⇒ 107 °F

Therefore the temperature will be 107 °F  .
