Textbook Question

Chapter 6, Problem 74P

(a) Find the work done in lifting 1 L of blood (mass 1 kg) from the foot to the head of a 1.7-m-tall person. (b) If blood circulates through the body at the rate of 5.0 L/min, estimate the heart’s power output. (Your answer underestimates the power by a factor of about 5 because it neglects fluid friction and other factors.)
