Using Poisuille’s Law, calculate the flow rate in an artery of diameter 0.8 cm, length of 4 cm, with the coefficient of blood viscosity is 4*10-3 Pa-s at normal blood pressure of 120 mm-Hg. (6 points) How does this flow rate change upon a 20% occlusion of the artery? (4 points) What is usually the compensation process to hold the flow rate steady? (2 points)

Below are typical values for blood flow through a coronary artery. Note that viscosity of the blood is not neglected. Density of blood, ρ = 1060 kg/m3 Viscosity of blood, ν = 0.004 Pa x s Flow rate, Q = 0.8 mL/s Length of artery, L = 3.5 cm Radius of artery, r = 0.2 cm For the same pressure drop, calculate the flow rate if the radius of the artery reduces by 30% its original value due to blockage?
3. 1/2 points | Previous Answers My Notes Smoking tobacco is bad for your circulatory health. In an attempt to maintain the blood's capacity to deliver oxygen, the body increases its red blood cell production, and this increases the viscosity of the blood. In addition, nicotine from tobacco causes arteries to constrict. (a) For a nonsmoker, with blood viscosity of 2.50 x 103 Pa s, normal blood flow requires a pressure difference of 8 mm Hg between the two ends...
65. The pressure drop along a length of artery is 100 Pa, the radius is 10 mm, and the flow is laminar. The average speed of the blood is 15 mm/s. (a) What is the net force on the blood in this section of artery? (b) What is the power expended maintaining the flow? 66. A small artery has a length of and a radius of . If the pressure drop across the artery'is 1.3 kPa, what's the flow rate...
64. A glucose solution being administered with an IV has a flow rate of. What will the new flow rate be if the glucose ist.Peshaced by whole blood having the same density but a viscosity 2.50 times that of the glucose? All other factors remain constant. 65. The pressure drop along a length of artery is 100 Pa, the radius is 10 mm, and the flow is laminar. The average speed of the blood is 15 mm/s. (a) What is...
A hypodermic needle is 3.10 cm in length and 0.39 mm in diameter. What pressure difference between the input and output of the needle is required so that the flow rate of water through it will be 1 g/s? (Use 1.0 ✕ 10−3 Pa · s as the viscosity of water.)
A small artery has a length of 1.05 times 10^-3 m and a radius of 2.7 times 10^-5 m. A If the pressure drop across the artery is 1.4 kPa, what is the flow rate through the artery in mm^3/s? (Assume that the temperature is 37 degree C, and the viscosity of blood at that temperature is 2.084 times 10^-3 N-s/m^2).
Please provide a clear solution for the above example. The
correct answer is provided.
Blood Flow in an Artery (20%) Blood (assume μ-4.5 × 10-5 lbs ft-2, SG-1.0) flows through an artery in the neck of a giraffe from its heart to its head at a rate of 2.5 × 10-4 ft3 s-1 as illustrated in Figure 2. Assume the length of the artery is 10 feet with a constant diameter of 0.20 inches. If the pressure at the beginning...
Plaque builds up on the walls of an artery decreasing its diameter from 1.16 cm to 0.70 cm. If the flow speed is 14.5 cm/s before reaching the region of plaque buildup, determine the following. (a) speed at which blood is traveling through the plaque-constricted region cm/s (b) pressure change within the plaque-constricted region. (Assume the density of blood is 1050 kg/m3. Be sure to include the appropriate sign with your answer.) Pa
