A major artery with a cross sectional area of 1.00cm^2 branches into 18 smaller arteries, each with an average cross sectional a

rea of 0.400cm^2. By what factor is the average velocity of the blood reduced when it passes into these branches

Here we can say that rate of flow must be constant

so here we will have

A_1v_1 = 18 A_2v_2

now we know that

A_1 = 1 cm^2

A_2 = 0.4 cm^2

now from above equation

1 cm^2 v_1 = 18(0.400 cm^2)v_2

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = \frac{1}{18\times 0.4}

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = 0.14

so velocity will reduce by factor 0.14

Debido al desorden en el laboratorio un científico tiene 2 termómetros diferentes pero no sabe en qué escalas están por lo que d
just olya [345]

Answer:

La escala del termómetro ''A'' es grados Celsius.

La escala del termómetro ''B'' es grados Fahrenheit.

Explanation:

Para hallar en qué escalas están los termómetros partimos de que la mezcla a la cuál se midió su temperatura mantuvo su temperatura constante.

Esto quiere decir que los termómetros están expresando la misma temperatura pero en una escala distinta.

Sabemos que dada una temperatura en grados Celsius ''C'' si la queremos convertir a grados Fahrenheit ''F'' debemos utilizar la siguiente ecuación :

F=(\frac{9}{5})C+32 (I)

Ahora, si reemplazamos y asumimos que la temperatura de 18° es en grados Celsius, entonces si reemplazamos C=18 en la ecuación (I) deberíamos obtener F=64.4 ⇒

F=(\frac{9}{5}).(18)+32=32.4+32=64.4

Efectivamente obtenemos el valor esperado. Finalmente, corroboramos que la temperatura del termómetro ''A'' está medida en grados Celsius y la temperatura del termómetro ''B'' en grados Fahrenheit.

At the same moment, one rock is dropped and one is theown downwand with an iniial velocily of 29 us frm op of a building that is
Helen [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock will strike the ground 2.42s earlier than the dropped rock.

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

  • y_{i}=300m
  • y_{f}=0m
  • v_{iD}=0m/s
  • v_{iT}=-29m/s, it is negative as is directed downward

<u>Time of the dropped Rock</u>

We can use y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find the total time of fall, so 0=300m-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})t_{D}^{2}}{2}, then clearing for t_{D}.

t_{D}=\sqrt[2]{\frac{300m}{4.9m/s^{2}}} =\sqrt[2]{61.22s^{2}} =7.82s

<u>Time of the Thrown Rock</u>

We can use y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find the total time of fall, so 0=300-29t_{T}-\frac{(9.8)t_{T}^{2}}{2}, then, 0=-4.9t_{T}^{2}-29t_{T}+300, as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is t_{T}=5.4s

Finally, we can find how much earlier does the thrown rock strike the ground, so t_{E}=t_{D}-t_{T}=7.82s-5.4s=2.42s

If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 65 ft/s, its height in feet after t seconds is given by
fgiga [73]

Answer:

a) v_{1}=\frac{(62.5-66)ft}{(2.5-2)s}=-7ft/s

v_{2}=\frac{(65.94-66)ft}{(2.1-2)s}=-0.6ft/s

v_{3}=\frac{(66.0084-66)ft}{(2.01-2)s}=0.84ft/s

v_{4}=\frac{(66.001-66)ft}{(2.001-2)s}=1ft/s

b) v=65-32(2)=1ft/s

Explanation:

From the exercise we got the ball's equation of position:

y=65t-16t^{2}

a) To find the average velocity at the given time we need to use the following formula:

v=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{t_{2}-t_{1}  }

Being said that, we need to find the ball's position at t=2, t=2.5, t=2.1, t=2.01, t=2.001

y_{t=2}=65(2)-16(2)^{2} =66ft

y_{t=2.5}=65(2.5)-16(2.5)^{2} =62.5ft

v_{1}=\frac{(62.5-66)ft}{(2.5-2)s}=-7ft/s

--

y_{t=2.1}=65(2.1)-16(2.1)^{2} =65.94ft

v_{2}=\frac{(65.94-66)ft}{(2.1-2)s}=-0.6ft/s

--

y_{t=2.01}=65(2.01)-16(2.01)^{2} =66.0084ft

v_{3}=\frac{(66.0084-66)ft}{(2.01-2)s}=0.84ft/s

--

y_{t=2.001}=65(2.001)-16(2.001)^{2} =66.001ft

v_{4}=\frac{(66.001-66)ft}{(2.001-2)s}=1ft/s

b) To find the instantaneous velocity we need to derivate the equation

v=\frac{df}{dt}=65-32t

v=65-32(2)=1ft/s
