A hypodermic needle of length 3 cm and internal diameter of 0.45 mm is used to draw blood with viscosity of 4 mPl. Assuming the pressure difference across the needle is 80 cmHg, how long does it take to draw 15 mL?
The arterioles (small arteries) leading to an organ, constrict in order to decrease flow to the organ. To shut down an organ, blood flow is reduced naturally to 2.10% of its original value. By what factor did the radii of the arterioles constrict? Penguins do this when they stand on ice to reduce the blood flow to their feet.
The following is a practice question for an upcoming test: At a resting pulse rate of 77 beats per minute, the human heart typically pumps about 73 mL of blood per beat. Blood has a density of 1060 kg/m3. Circulating all of the blood in the body through the heart takes about 1 min for a person at rest. On average, what mass of blood does the heart pump with each heart beat in kg? mass per heart beat:
5. Calculate the average blood velocity in the major arteries, given that the aorta has a radius of 1.00 cm, the blood velocity is 30.0 cm/s in the aorta, and the total cross-sectional area of the major arteries is 20.0 cm^2. (b) What is the total flow rate in cm^3/s and liters/minute? (c) On the assumption that all the blood in the circulatory system goes through the capillaries, and given that the average velocity of the blood in the capillaries is 3.00 x 10^(-2) cm/s, what is the total cross-sectional area of the capillaries?

9. The blood speed in a normal segment of a horizontal artery is 0.12 m/s. An abnormal segment of the artery is narrowed by an arteriosclerotic plaque down to one-third its normal cross-sectional area.

At a resting pulse rate of 79 beats per minute, the human heart typically pumps about 75 mL of blood per beat. Blood has a density of 1060kg/m^3.

11.23 Blood pressure is generally quoted in mmHg and is a gauge pressure. In this question we will convert this into SI units. Suppose that the systolic pressure of a particular patient is 120 mmHg and the diastolic pressure is 80 mmHg. Given that 760 mmHg is equivalent to 101.3 kPa, what is the systolic and diastolic blood pressure of this patient in SI units (Pa, or kPa)?
