When physicians diagnose arterial blockages, they quote the reduction in flow rate. If the flow rate in an artery has been reduced to 10.0% of its normal value by a blood clot and the average pressure difference has increased by 20.0%, by what factor has the clot reduced the radius of the artery?
When a person inhales, air moves down the bronchus (windpipe) at 15 cm/s. The average How speed of the air doubles through a constriction in the bronchus. Assuming incompressible flow, determine the pressure drop in the constriction.
The human circulation system has approximately 1109 capillary vessels. Each vessel has a diameter of about 8 m. Assuming cardiac output is 5 L/min, determine the average velocity of blood flow through each capillary vessel.
(a) Using Bernoulli's equation, show that the measured fluid speed v for a pitot tube, like the one in Figure 12.7(b), is given by v=( 2gh)1/2 , where h is the height of the manometer fluid, is the density of the manometer fluid, is the density of the moving fluid, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. (Note that v is indeed proportional to the square root of h, as stated in the text.) (b) Calculate v for moving air if a mercury manometer's h is 0.200 m. Figure 12.7 Measurement of fluid speed based on Bernoulli's principle. (a) A manometer is connected to two that are close together and small enough not to disturb the flow. Tube 1 is open at the end facing the flow. A dead spot having zero speed is created there. Tube 2 has an opening on the side, and so the fluid has a speed V across the opening; thus, pressure there drops. The difference in pressure at the manometer is 12v22 , and so h is proportional to 12v22 . (b) This type of velocity measuring device is a Prandtl tube, also known as a pitot tube.
During a marathon race, a runner's blood flow increases to 10.0 times her resting rate. Her blood's viscosity dropped to 95.0% of its normal value, and the blood pressure difference across the circulatory system has increased by 50.0%. By what factor bas be average radii of her blood vessels increased?
Pressure between the inside chest wall and the outside of the lungs normally remains negative. Explain how pressure inside the lungs can become positive (to cause exhalation) without muscle action.
Many entrainment devices have a constriction, called a Venturi, such as shown in Figure 12.24. How does this bolster entrainment? Figure 12.24 A tube with a narrow segment designed to enhance entrainment is called a Venturi. These are very commonly used in carburetors and aspirators.
Does atmospheric pressure add to the gas pressure in a rigid tank? In a toy balloon? When, in general, does atmospheric pressure not affect the total pressure in a fluid?
(a) As blood passes through the capillary bed in an organ, the capillaries join to form venules (small veins). If the blood speed increases by a factor of 4.00 and the total cross-sectional area of the venules is 10.0 cm2, what is the total cross-sectional area of the capillaries feeding these venules? (b) How many capillaries are involved if their average diameter is 10.0 m?
A glucose solution being administered with an IV has a flow rate of 4.00 cm3/min. What will the new flow rate be if the glucose is replaced by whole blood having the same density but a viscosity 2.50 times that of glucose? All other factors remain constant.
(a) Convert normal blood pressure readings of 120 over 80 mm Hg to newtons per meter squared using be relationship for pressure due to the weight of a fluid (p=hg) rater a conversion factor. (b) Explain why be blood pressure of an infant would likely be smaller than that of an adult. Specifically, consider the smaller height to which blood mast be pumped.
Blood is pumped from the heart at a rate of 5.0 L/min into the aorta (of radius 1.0 cm). Determine the speed of blood through the aorta.
