Answer:

The basic tenet of calculating resistance is that flow is equal to driving pressure divided by flow rate.

r = ΔP\div q

where

  • R is Resistance measured in HGU
  • ΔP is the change in pressure across the circulation loop measured in mmHg
  • Q is the flow through the vasculature measured in L/min

So resistance is equal to:

r = 37mmhg \div 0.017l \div min = 2176hgu

Solar energy does not warm Earth's surface evenly. For example, during the day, land areas warm up faster than nearby bodies of
Nadya [2.5K]

Explanation:

The uneven warming of the earth surface causes land and sea breeze over the land and water.

Water has a very high specific capacity and it takes more heat to cause a fractional increase in its temperature. During day, the air around water is cold and dense and under high pressure.

The land adjacent to the water, is a better conduct with a low specific heat capacity. When warming of the earth starts by the sun, the air on land heated by heat radiated from the surface. Air on land is warm, less dense and light.

This forces the air on land to move seaward and the cold air from the sea to move land ward and a sea breeze is set up.

At night the reverse is the case. The land loses heat very fast and the air around it is cold and dense. The water body does not lose heat so fast and the air around is warm and lighter. Air from the land replaces that on the surface of water and a land breeze is set up
