There are two carotid arteries that feed blood to the brain, one on each side of the neck and head. One patient's carotid arteries are each 11.2 cm long and have an inside diameter of 5.1 mm . Near the middle of the left artery, however, is a 2.0-cm-long stenosis, a section of the artery with a smaller diameter of 3.3 mm Part A For the same blood flow rate, what is the ratio of the pressure drop along the patient's left carotid artery to the drop along his right artery?

Fluid Dynamics

The study of the flow of gases and liquids, usually in and around solid surfaces, is known as fluid dynamics in physics and engineering. Fluid dynamics, for example, can be used to evaluate the movement of air through an airplane wing or the surface of a vehicle. It can also be used in ship design to increase the speed at which ships pass through water.
