To calculate the minimum pressure difference required to force blood from the heart to the top of the head (a vertical distance of about 50 cm), we can use the hydrostatic pressure formula. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We need to find the minimum pressure difference (ΔP) required to move blood vertically from the heart to the top of the head, which is a distance of 50 cm. ### Step 2: Convert the Distance to Meters Since the standard unit for height in physics calculations is meters, we convert 50 cm to meters: \[ ...

The human ciculatory system can be thought of as a closed system of interconnecting pipes through which fluid is continuously circulated by two pumps the two pumps the right and left verticles of the heart, work as simple two-stroke force pumps. The muscles of the heart regulate the force by contracting and relaxing. the contraction (systole) lasts about 0.2s and a complete systole/diastole (contraction/relaxation) cycle lasts about 0.8s. For flood pressures and speeds in the normal range. the volume flow rate of blood through a blood vessel is directly proportional tot he pressure difference over a length of the vessel and to the fourth power of the radius of the vessel. The total mechanical energy per unit volume of blood just as it leaves the heart is E//V=rhogh+P+rhov^(2) Q. Why is diastolic blood pressure muchh lower than systolic pressure? A. because the heart exerts more force on the blood during diastole B. Because the heart exerts no force on the blood during diastole C. Because the radii of the blood vessels increase during diastole while the force exerted by the heart on the blood remains the same. D. Because the radii of the blood vessels increase during diastole while the force exerted by the heart on the blood remains the same.

When liquid medicine of density rho is to be put in the eye, it is done with the help of a dropper. As the bylb on the top of the dropper is pressed. A drop frons at the opening of the dropper. We wish to estimate the size of the drop. We first assume that the drop formed at the opening is spherical because that requires a minimum increase in its surface energy, To determine the size. We calculate the net vertical force due to the surface tension T when the radius of the drop is R. when this force become smaller than the weight of the drop the drop gets detached from the dropper. If the radius of the opening of the dropper is r, the vertical force due to the surface tension on the drop of radius R (assuming rlt ltR) is

In a children\'s park, there is a slide which has a total length of 10 m and a height of 8.0 m figure. Vertical ladder are provided to reach the top.

Find a. the work done by the ladder on the boy as he goes up. b. the work done by the slide on the boy as he comes down. Neglect any work done by forces inside the body of the boy.
