Blood of specific gravity 1 flows through an artery in the neck of a giraffe from its heart to the head. If the pressure at the beginning of the artery (outlet of the heart) is equal to 0.212 m of mercury, determine the pressure at the end of the artery when the head is: (a) 2.4 m above the heart (b) 1.8 m below the heart Please solve using dimensions

The figure shows the Russel fracture traction device and a mechanical model of the leg. The leg is held in balance in the position indicated by the two weights attached to the two cables. The total weight of the leg and the cast is W=250 N. The distance between the points A and B where the cables are attached to the leg is given as L=100 cm and the angle of the leg with the horizontal is γ=6°. Point C is the center of gravity of the cast and leg at three quarters of the L measured from point A (3L/4= 75 cm). The angle that cable 2 makes with the horizontal is measured as β=40°.

The figure shows the Russel fracture traction device and a mechanical model of the leg. The leg is held in balance in the position indicated by the two weights attached to the two cables. The combined weight of the leg and cast is W=180 N. The distance between the points A and B where the cables are attached to the leg is given as L=100 cm and the angle of the leg with the horizontal is given as γ=8°. Point C is the center of gravity of the cast and leg at three quarters of the L measured from point A (3L/4= 75 cm). The angle that cable 2 makes with the horizontal is measured as β=50°. Accordingly, in order for the leg to remain in balance in the shown position; a) Find the tensile force T1 in cable 1. (Write your result in N)b) Find the tensile force T2 in cable 2.
