A cylindrical blood vessel is partially blocked by the buildup of plaque. At one point, the plaque decreases the diameter of the

vessel by 59.0%. The blood approaching the blocked portion has speed V0. Just as the blood enters the blocked portion of the vessel, what is its speed V, expressed as a multiple of V0?

Answer:

2.87 V₀

Explanation:

d₀ = diameter of vessel before blood enters blocked portion

d = diameter of vessel in the blocked portion = 0.59 d₀

V₀ = speed of blood before blocked portion

V = speed of blood in blocked portion

Using equation of continuity

(0.25) π d₀² V₀ =  (0.25) π d² V

d₀² V₀ =  (0.59 d₀)² V

d₀² V₀ =  (0.59)² d₀² V

V = 2.87 V₀

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

El peso del cartel es 397,97 N

Explanation:

La tensión dada en cada segmento del cable = 2000 N

El desplazamiento vertical del cable = 50 cm = 0,5 m

La distancia entre los polos = 10 m

La posición del letrero en el cable = En el medio = 5

El ángulo de inclinación del cable a la vertical = tan⁻¹ (0.5 / 5) = 5.71 °

El peso del letrero = La suma del componente vertical de la tensión en cada lado del letrero

El peso del signo = 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) + 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) = 397.97 N

El peso del signo = 397,97 N.

Capillary action in trees can transport water from the roots to the tree's branches. The capillaries (Xyelem) in a certain tree
lesantik [10]

Answer:

h=14.2857\,m

Explanation:

Given:

radius of capillary, r=10^{-6}\,m

angle of contact, \theta=0^{\circ}

density of water, \rho=1000\,kg.m^{-3}

surface tension of water, T=0.07 \,N.m^{-1}

height, h = ?

We have the equation for the height of meniscus as:

h=\frac{2T.cos\, \theta}{\rho.g.r}

h=\frac{2\times 0.07\times cos\,0^{\circ}}{1000\times 9.8\times 10^{-6}}

h=14.2857\,m

No, the capillary action alone cannot be the mechanism of water transportation to the top of the trees. Transpiration also creates a suction pressure in the xylem complementary to the ascent of sap and cohesion of water being the other causes of movement of water up in the plants.

Dmitriy789 [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>A) Increase the voltage by adding a bigger battery </u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to Ohm's law

V = IR

where V is voltage, I is current and R is the resistance. If we write the equation for resistance we would get

R= V / I

Here we can see that Voltage is directly proportional to Resistance so in order to keep the balance if we increase the resistance then we must increase the voltage to keep the current constant.
