1. An aortic aneurysm is a ballooning of the aorta caused by a weakened vessel wall. 1) Use conservation of mass to find the velocity at the outlet of an aortic aneurysm. Assume a steady horizontal flow of 4.5 L/min. 2) Use conservation of energy to estimate the pressure in the aneurysm. The inlet pressure is 100 mmHg. Does this tend to increase or decrease the diameter of the aneurysm? Explain. 3) Use conservation of momentum to compute the force by the blood on the vessel wall P = 100 mmHg Q = 4.5 L/min 5 cm 2 cm
