A vertical tube open to the atmosphere is connected to the vein in the arm of an emergency patient. The height that the blood rises in the tube is to be determined. See figure 7. The mass density of the blood is 1040kg/m³ and the gage pressure was read to be 120 mm of mercury. How heigh should an I.V. plastic tube be raised to force a fluid into the vein of the patient? a.0.57 m d. none of the above b.1.57 m c. 1.24 m
