Chapter 2, Problem 2.92PP

BIO BLOOD FLOW IN THE HEART. The human circulatory system is closed—that is. the blood pumped out of the left ventricle of the heart into the arteries is constrained to a series of continuous, branching vessels as it passes through the capillaries and then into the veins as it returns to the heart. The blood in each of the heart’s four chambers comes briefly to rest before it is ejected by contraction of the heart muscle.

2.92 The velocity of blood in the aorta can be measured directly with ultrasound techniques. A typical graph of blood velocity versus time during a single heartbeat is shown in Fig. P2.92. Which statement is the best interpretation of this graph? (a) The blood flow changes direction at about 0.25 s; (b) the speed of the blood flow begins to decrease at about 0.10 s; (c) the acceleration of the blood is greatest in magnitude at about 0.25 s; (d) the acceleration of the blood is greatest in magnitude at about 0.10 s.

An object has an initial velocity v1 = 4.3î + -3.7jm/s. Over a | period of timet = 1.4 s, its velocity became vz = -2î + 0.5j m/s. The magnitude of the displacement of the object (in m) is. а. 0.83 b. 13.79 С. 2.65 d. 8.28 е. 2.76
An object has an initial velocity v = 2.4i + 4.5j m/s. Over a period of time t = 2.9 s, its velocity becames v2 = 2.4i +35 m/s. The magnitude of the object's acceleration (in m/s?) is: a. 1.73 b. 0.52 с. 2.59 d. 3.07 e. 0.26
Two 47. identical pellet guns are fired simultaneously from the edge of a cliff. These guns impart an initial speed of 30.0 m/s to each pellet. Gun A is fired straight upward, with the pellet going up and then falling back down, eventually hitting the ground beneath the cliff. Gun B is fired straight downward. In the absence of air resistance, how long after pellet B hits the ground does pellet A hit the ground? 48. mmh An astronaut on a distant planet wants to determine its accel- eration due to gravity. The astronaut throws a rock straight up with a ve- locity of +15 m/s and measures a time of 20.0 s before the rock returns to his hand. What is the acceleration (magnitude and direction) due to gravity on this planet? I 52. A ball is thrown straight upward. At 4.00 m above its launch point, the ball's speed is one-half its launch speed. What maximum height above its launch point does the ball attain? 53. ssm From her bedroom window a girl drops a water-filled balloon to the ground,…
