- A pumping station uses a Venturi tube to measure the flow rate of gasoline. The density of the gasoline is p = 7.10 x 102 kg/m³, the inlet and outlet tubes, respectively, have a radius of 3.62 cm and 1.81 cm, and the difference in input and output pressure is P, - P2 = 1.20 kPa. (a) Find the speed (in m/s) of the gasoline as it leaves the hose. m/s (b) Find the fluid flow rate in cubic meters per second. ]m³/sSuppose an occlusion in an artery reduces its diameter by 15%, but the volume flow rate of blood in the artery remains the same. By what factor has the pressure drop across the length of this artery increased?Blood is flowing through a horizontal region of a blood vessel, located 5cm above the heart, at a velocity of 0.4 m/s. This region is directly connected to another horizontal region of the vessel located 10cm below the heart. What is the velocity of the blood flowing through this lower portion of the blood vessel if there is no pressure difference between these two regions? answer is 1.8 m/s

At the wellhead, the pipe's diameter is 50.9 cm (0.509 m) and the flow speed of the petroleum is 13.3 m/s. At the refinery, the petroleum flows at 5.15 m/s. What is the volume flow rate of the petroleum along the pipe and what is the pipe's diameter at the refinery?Water with a density of 1 x 103 kg/m³ flows through a horizontal pipe. The pipe cross-section tapers from 0.0080 m² to 0.0040 m² at a reducer. The static pressure before the reducer is 4 x 105 Pa and the flow velocity is 2 m/s. The flow is incompressible and frictionless. What pressure is measured after the reducer?When physicians diagnose arterial blockages, they quote the reduction in flow rate. If the flow rate in an artery has been reduced to 14.3% of its normal value by a blood clot and the average pressure difference has increased by 23.0%, by what factor has the clot reduced the radius, ro, of the artery? r= roSmoking can cause a person's arteries to constrict to 90 % of their normal radius. If the usual pressure difference needed to maintain a healthy blood flow rate in an artery is 405 Pa, what new pressure difference is needed to maintain the same volume flow rate (NOT flow speed)? You may assume that the artery has a length of 10 cm, a radius of 2 mm, and that blood has a viscosity of 2.7×10−3N⋅s/m2.7×10−3N⋅s/m. (in Pa) 450 328 617 500 266The pressure in Pa is equal to 18 mm Hg times 133 Pa /mm Hg = 2394 Pa. Then set 2394 = ρ g h . Solving for h we get 2394 Pa /(10 m/s2 1000 kg/m3 ) = 0.2394 m.If you were helping in a blood drive, where would you hang the bag of donated blood?

Assume that the damaged region is a circular hole with radius b. the thickness of the endothelial layer can be neglected. The endothelial layer is impermeable to cholesterol and plasma, except in the damaged region. The subendothelial space can be treated as a semi-infinite porous material with hydraulic conductivity K. The transport of fluid and cholesterol is in the radial direction and is symmetric about the center of the hole. The diffusion coefficient of cholesterol in the subendothelial tissue is D. The concentration of cholesterol and the hydrostatic pressure at r = b are approximately equal to those in the plasma, which are Cp and p0 respectively. The concentration and pressure at r→∞ are assumed to be zero. Determine the distribution of pressure in the subendothelial space in the steady state and evaluate the pressure at r =…The Venturi tube shown in the figure below may be used as a fluid flowmeter.
