Chapter 2, Problem 66AP
The thickest and strongest chamber in the human heart is the left ventricle, responsible during systole for pumping oxygenated blood through the aorta to rest of the body. Assume aortic blood starts from rest and accelerates at 22.5 m/s2 to a peak speed of 1.05 m/s. (a) How far does the blood travel during this acceleration? (b) How much time is required for the blood to reach its peak speed?

A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 32 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splash 2.72 s later, what was the initial speed given to the rock (in m/s)?
Assume the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.
m/s
What If? If the temperature near the cliff suddenly falls to 0°C, reducing the speed of sound to 331 m/s, what would the initial speed of the rock have to be (in m/s) for the soccer player to
hear the sound of the splash 2.72 s after kicking the rock?
m/s
When the human body is at rest, the heart pumps 4.6 L of blood into the aorta every minute.
During some exceptional exertion, such as playing sports, the amount of blood delivered to the aorta increases to 25 L every minute. If the area of the opening of the aorta is A = 0.81 cm2
What is the average velocity of blood as it enters the aorta in each of these cases?

Before the state legislature votes on funding for the project, they would like you to prepare a report on the benefits of upgrading the elevators. One of the numbers that they have requested is the time it will take the elevator to go from the ground floor to the 102nd floor observatory. They are unlikely to approve the project unless the new elevators make the trip much faster than the old elevators. If state law mandates that elevators cannot accelerate more than 1.80 m/s2 or travel faster than 14.8 m/s, what is the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor to the observatory floor? minimum travel time:arrow_forwardTo Merge into the highway you need to increase your speed from 50 km/h to 100 km/h.

How long does it take a nerve signal to cross a synapse? You can assume that the synaptic fluid is essentially water. What is the speed of transmission, in m/sm/s?arrow_forwardIn his 1865 science fiction novel From the Earth to the Moon, Jules Verne described how three astronauts are shot to the Moon by means of a huge gun. According to Verne, the aluminum capsule containing the astronauts is accelerated by ignition of nitrocellulose to a speed of 11 km/s along the gun barrel’s length of 220 m. (a) In g units, what is the average acceleration of the capsule and astronauts in the gun barrel? (b) Is that acceleration tolerable or deadly to the astronauts? A modern version of such gun-launched spacecraft (although without passengers) has been proposed. In this modern version, called the SHARP (Super High Altitude Research Project) gun, ignition of methane and air shoves a piston along the gun’s tube, compressing hydrogen gas that then launches a rocket. During this launch, the rocket moves 3.5 km and reaches a speed of 7.0 km/s. Once launched, the rocket can be fired to gain additional speed.
