When the patient is unconscious, the specialized doctor gives him nutrients through an intravenous solution, the density of which is 1.05 g / ml, through a vein in the arm. If the intravenous pressure gauge is 5.980 KPa, what is the minimum height that allows the solution to enter the patient's vein? (Suppose the viscosity of the solution is negligible).

Suppose blood is pumped from the heart at a rate of 4.5 L/min into the aorta of radius 1.2 cm. Determine the speed of blood through the aorta, in centimeters per second. V?
The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (heaviness) test is often used for a blood sample as a diagnosis of the body's immune disorders and some other diseases. Assuming that the red blood cells are about a sphere of diameter ( 5 um ) and density ( g / ml 1.125 ) and the density and viscosity of the plasma in which the red blood cells are settled (Pa.s), (1025 kg / m3 10-3 x 1.5) respectively The acceleration m / s 9.81 Calculate the rate of sedimentation (settling speed) of red blood cells.
The basic function of an automobile's carburetor is to atomize the gasoline and mix it with air to promote rapid combustion. Assume that 40 cm? of gasoline is atomized into N spherical droplets. Each droplet has a radius of 2.0 x 10-5 m. Find the total surface area of these N spherical droplets.
The human circulation system has approximately 1 × 109 capillary vessels. Each vessel has a diameter of about 8μm . Assuming cardiac output is 5 L/min, determine the average velocity of blood flow through each capillary vessel.
An aquatic organism needs to be neutrally buoyant to stay at a constant depth. Fish accomplish this with an internal swim bladder they can fill with air that they take in from the water through their gills. One complication is that the pressure in the swim bladder matches that of the surrounding water, but the water pressure changes with depth. Because the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to pressure (as you may already know if you have studied the ideal-gas law), the volume of air in a fish's swim bladder decreases with depth unless the fish actively adds more air.
For modeling and calculation purposes, architects treat air as an incompressible fluid. As an architect's intern, you are doing the specs on a dorm air conditioning system that is designed to replace the air in each room every twenty-three minutes. If the rooms each have a volume of 200 m3and they are supplied by ducts with a square cross section, determine the following. (a) the length of each side of a duct if the air speed in the duct is to be 3.6 m/s. m (b) the length of each side of a duct if the air speed at the duct is to be a value twice this speed.m
blood flows through the aorta at an average speed of v=18 cm/s. The aorta is roughly cylindrical with a radius r=18.0 mm. The volume rate of blood flow through the aorta is 3.14r^2v. Calculate the volume rate of blood flow through the aorta in L.min.

You are help to educate a patient on the ramifications of a partial arterial blockage you have recently discovered. To communicate the severity, you decide to tell the patient about how much of the volume of blood that normally passes through the artery has decreased. The relationship you are describing is called AV Poiseuille's equation and it reads: ™R^ (P₁-P₂) 8nl If the At radius of the artery decreases by a factor of 2 because of the blockage (as shown in the image below), by what factor has the volume flow rate (A) decreased? At Wall of artery (a) Artery wall thickening Blockage O Note: Do not explicitly include units in your answer, however (include number only). Including units (like cm) will result in the question being scored wrong.

Calculate the average speed of blood if min V blood = cm S (b) The aorta branches many times until the blood finally reaches the smallest branch: the capillaries. Each capillary has an average diameter of 6.9 μm and the blood slows down to 0.5 the number of capillaries in the body. Does this answer look reasonable? mm Calculate .
