The velocity of blood through a vessel is given by V= K (R2 r2), where K is a constant, R is the (constant) radius of the vessel, and r is the distance of the particular corpuscle from the center of the vessel. The rate of flow can be found by measuring the volume of blood that flows past a point in a given time period. This volume, V, is given by V=f Ro v(2Л r dr)
1. If R=0.30 cm and v = (0.30-3.33r 2) cm/ s, find the volume.
2. Develop a general formula for V by evaluating V=fRo v(2Л r dr) using v=K(R2-r 2).
