8. A large artery in a person's body can be approximated by a tube of diameter 9 mm and length 0.35 m. Also assume that blood has a viscosity of approximately 4 X 10-3 N s/m2, a specific grav- ity of 1.0, and that the pressure at the beginning of the artery is equiv- alent to 120 mm Hg. If the flow were steady (it is not) with V 0.2 m/s, detemine the pressure at the end of the artery if it is ori- ented (a) vertically up (flow up) or (b) horizontal. %3D
