Question

A large vessel of the diameter of 14 mm divides into two identical smaller vessels but the velocity of blood in

Answer 1

Answer:

the diameter of the smaller vessels is 9.90 mm

Explanation:

The computation of the diameter of the smaller vessels is given below;

Given that

The larger vessel of the diameter is 14mm

So,

d1 = 7 mm

let us assume the diameter of the smaller artery is d2

Now we used the equation of continuity i.e.

v × pi × d1^2 = 2 × v × pi × d2^2

14^2 = 2 × d2^2

d2 = 9.90 mm

Hence, the diameter of the smaller vessels is 9.90 mm
