Answer: the average velocity decreases

Explanation:

From the provided data we have:

Vessel    avg. diameter[mm] number

Aorta                 25.0                   1

Arteries             4.0                    159

Arteioles           0.06                 1.4*10^7

Capillaries         0.012               2.9*10^9

from the information, let \hat{m} be the mass flow rate, \rho is density, n number of vessels, and A is the cross-section area for each vessel

the flow rate is constant so it is equal for all vessels,

The average velocity is related to the flow rate by:

\hat{m} = v* \rho * A * n

we clear the side where v is in:

v = \frac{\hat{m}}{\rho A n}

area is π*R^2 where R is the average radius of the vessel (diameter/2)

we get:

v = \frac{\hat{m}}{\rho \pi R^2 n}

you can directly see in the last equation that if we go from the aorta to the capillaries, the number of vessels is going to increase ( n will increase and R is going to decrease ) . From the table, R is significantly smaller in magnitude orders than n, therefore, it wont impact the results as much as n. On the other hand, n will change from 1 to 2.9 giga vessels which will dramatically reduce the average blood velocity

Are ocean currents always cold
swat32

Answer:

The surface ocean currents have a strong effect on Earth's climate. ... However, these areas do not constantly get warmer and warmer, because the ocean currents and winds transport the heat from the lower latitudes near the equator to higher latitudes near the poles.

Consider a simple ideal Rankine cycle and an ideal regenerative Rankine cycle with one open feedwater heater. The two cycles are
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

They both have the same efficiency.

Explanation:

The simple ideal Rankine cycle and an ideal regenerative Rankine cycle with one open feedwater heater would both have the same efficiency because the extraction steam would just create a mini cycle that recirculates. The energy given to the feedwater heater is proportional to the added heat in the boiler to the feedwater in the simple cycle to raise its temperature to the same boiler inlet condition.

Therefore in comparison, the efficiency is the same for both.

A satellite orbits the Earth every 2 hours at an average distance from the Earth's centre of 8000km. (i) What is the average ang
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

i)ω=3600 rad/s

ii)V=7059.44 m/s

iii)F=1245.8 N

Explanation:

i)

We know that angular speed given as

\omega =\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}

We know that for one revolution

θ=2π

Given that time t= 2 hr

So

ω=θ/t

ω=2π/2 = π rad/hr

ω=3600 rad/s

ii)

Average speed V

V=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}

Where M is the mass of earth.

R is the distance

G is the constant.

Now by putting the values

V=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}

V=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{8000\times 10^3}}

V=7059.44 m/s

iii)

We know that centripetal fore given as

F=\dfrac{mV^2}{R}

Here given that m= 200 kg

R= 8000 km

so now by putting the values

F=\dfrac{mV^2}{R}

F=\dfrac{200\times 7059.44^2}{8000\times 10^3}

F=1245.8 N

Consider an area-source box model for air pollution above a peninsula of land. The length of the box is 15 km, its width is 80 k
In-s [12.5K]

Consider an area-source box model for air pollution above a peninsula of land. The length of the box is 15 km, its width is 80 km, and a radiation inversion restricts mixing to 15 m. Wind is blowing clean air into the long dimension of the box at 0.5 m/s. On average, there are 250,000 vehicles on the road, each being driven 40 km in 2 hours and each emitting 4 g/km of CO.

Required:

a. Estimate the steady-state concentration of CO in the air. Should the city be designated as "nonattainment" (i.e., steady-state concentration is over the NAAQS standard)?

b. Find the average rate of CO emissions during this two-hour period.

c. If the windspeed is zero, use the formula to derive relationship between CO and time and use it to find the CO over the peninsula at 6pmConsider an area-source box model for air pollution above a peninsula of land.
