The large blood vessel leading from the human heart, the aorta, has an inside diameter of 1.0 cm and a length of 40 cm. The flowing blood (SG = 1.06) has a viscosity of 3.5 CP and an average velocity of 60 cm/s. Find the pressure drop across the aorta, if it is (a) horizontal, (b) vertical with upward flow, and (c) vertical with downward flow.

Assume that blood at a density of 1.06 g/cm3 is flowing through the ascending aorta (diameter 2.5cm) at a time-averaged velocity of 50cm/s. The mean arterial pressure at this location is 100mmHg. If blood were to flow through a 7cm abdominal aortic aneurysm: a) Calculate the pressure in the aneurysm if the subject is in supine position; show all unit conversion. b) assuming the maximum diameter of the aneurysm is located 50cm below the ascending aorta, calculate the pressure in...

The heart pumps blood into the aorta at a rate of 4 L/min. Calculate the average speed of blood if the aorta’s diameter is 2 cm. The aorta branches many times until the blood finally reaches the smallest branch: the capillaries. Each capillary has an average diameter of 6 μm and a length of 1 mm, and the blood slows down to 0.5 mm/s. Calculate the number of capillaries in the body.

Oxygen-rich blood bound for the body tissues leaves the heart through the aorta, the major blood vessel emerging from the heart. It branches out to the arteries, which in turn branch into smaller vessels called arterioles (little arteries). These then branch into tiny, thin-walled capillaries. Blood travels slowly as the red blood cells squeeze through tiny capillaries. The radius of the aorta is approximately 9.8 mm and the speed of the blood there is 30 cm/s. A typical capillary has...

The human circulatory system delivers oxygenated blood from the lungs throughout the human body to enable the transport to and from body cells of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, hormones and blood cells. A variety of sizes of arteries and veins are required to ful?l this need. (a) A typical heartbeat pumps 75 mL of blood over a time span of 0.36 seconds into the aorta. If under this pressure the aorta expands to a diameter of 4.2 mm, what is...

a small blood veasel near the skin surface has a radius of 10um, a length of 1mm and the pressure drop along the blood vessel is 2.5 Pa. The viscosity of blood is 2.7x10-3 N s m-2. A.) what is the volume flow rate of blood through this blood vessel? what is the velocity of blood flow? Answer F=3.64x10-12m3 s-1 v= 0.012ms-1 B.)vasodilation causes the radius of this blood vessel to increase to 12um, while leaving the pressure drop along...
