Gasoline is piped underground from refineries to major users. The flow rate is 3.00102 m3/s (about 500 gal/ min), the viscosity of gasoline is 1.00103 (N/m2) s, and its density is 680 kg/m3. (a) What minimum diameter must the pipe have if the Reynolds number is to be less than 2000? (b) What pressure difference must be maintained along each kilometer of the pipe to maintain this flow rate?
Suppose you are at the top of Mount Everest and you fill a water balloon. The air pressure at the top of Mount Everest is 58 kPa. a.

Air is blown into a spherical balloon so that, when its radius is 6.50 cm, its radius is increasing at the rate 0.900 cm/s. (a) Find the rate at which the volume of the balloon is increasing. (b) If this volume flow rate of air entering the balloon is constant, at what rate will the radius be increasing when the radius is 13.0 cm? (c) Explain physically why the answer to part (b) is larger or smaller than 0.9 cm/s, if it is different.

The flow rate of blood through 2.00106 -m-radius capillary is 3.80109 cm3/s. (a) What is the speed of the blood flow? (This small speed allows time for diffusion of materials to and from the blood.) (b) Assuming all the blood in the body passes through capillaries, how many of them must there be to carry a total flow of 90.0 cm3/s? (The large number obtained is an overestimate, but it is still reasonable.)
