A cylindrical blood vessel is partially blocked by the buildup of plaque. At one point, the plaque decreases the diameter of the vessel by 55.0%. The blood approaching the blocked portion has speed vo. Just as the blood enters the blocked portion of the vessel, what is its speed v, expressed as a multiple of vo? U = X UOA small artery has a length of 1.10 x 10- m and a radius of 2.50 x 10 m. If the pressure drop across the artery is 1.55 kPa, what is the flow rate through the artery? Assume that the temperature is 37 C and the viscosity of whole blood is 2.084 x 10-3 Pa.s. Question Credit: OpenStax College Physics flow rate: m' /sBlood takes about 1.65 s to pass through a 2.00 mm long capillary. If the diameter of the capillary is 5.00 um and the pressure drop is 2.65 kPa, calculate the viscosity n of blood. Assume n = (N.s)/m2 laminar flow.What is the greatest average speed u of blood flow at 37 .C in an artery of radius 2.25 mm if the flow is to remain laminar? Take the density of blood to be 1025 kg/m', and the viscosity to be 2.084 x 10- Pa.s. U = m/s What is the corresponding flow rate Q? Q = m' /s
