Q.1. Blood flows from the camel heart to its head at a rate of 2.5 x 10 ft /s. Suppose that the length of the artery is 10 ft and that its diameter is 0.22 in. If the pressure at the outlet of the heart is equivalent to 0.77 ft Hg. (u- 4.5 x 105 lbrs/ft2 and SG 1.0) 1) Determine the pressure at the end of the artery when the head is (a) 4 ft above the heart or (b) 5 ft below the heart. 2) How much of this pressure difference is due to elevation effects and how much is due to friction?
