Describe a method of calculating the flow rate in the normal pump versus the pump with the narrowed vessels you described above.
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Taking into account that:

The flow velocity u of a fluid is a vector field

u = u (x, t)

What gives the velocity of a Fluid Plot at position x y time t.

q = || u ||

Now if the flow is continuous as it happens in the blood vessels then:

The flow of a fluid is said to be constant if it does not move over time, that is why the variant would be 0.

Explanation:

As for the pump with narrow vessels, there the area would be less, therefore the flow also and the flow velocity as well. Adding that the friction with the walls increases as it is narrower, thus generating an increase in pressure with the flow of the liquid.

So this is where we have to put emphasis on the biophysics branch that explains the following:

The Venturi effect is explained by the Bernoulli Principle and the principle of continuity of mass. If the flow rate of a fluid is constant but the section decreases, the speed necessarily increases after crossing this section. By the theorem of conservation of mechanical energy, if the kinetic energy increases, the energy determined by the value of pressure necessarily decreases.

Indeed, according to Bernoulli's principle:

P 1 + 21 ρv 12 + ρgh 1 = P 2 + 21 ρv 22 + ρgh 2

ruslelena [56]

The statement that is made by the client that led to the nurse to believe that client requires clarification is "This will stop my daughter-in-law from putting me in a home".

<h3>What are advanced directives?</h3>

Advanced directives are documents written and signed with the full knowledge of the patient or patient's relatives concerning the their health care decisions made about them ahead of time.

When such a statement as "This will stop my daughter-in-law from putting me in a home", being made by a client it shows they are yet to understand the meaning of advanced directives.

Therefore the nurse is meant to clarify them further.

Susie wants to maintain her current weight. If she goes out on a Friday night and drinks three 12-ounce beers, by how many calor
geniusboy [140]

Susie will need to reduce her typical intake by 432 calories to compensate for the calories contained in the beer.

<h3>What are calories?</h3>

Calories is a measure of energy contained in foods.

Foods with high energy content such as starchy and fatty foods have high energy content.

In order to maintain her current weight, Susie needs to ensure that she maintains the correct energy balance.

Assuming there are 12 calories in an ounce of beer beer.

There will be 12 × 3 × 12 = 432 calories in three 12-ounce beers.

Therefore, Susie will need to reduce her typical intake by 432 calories to compensate for the calories contained in the beer.
