Question
5. Calculate the average blood velocity in the major arteries, given that the aorta has a radius of 1.00 cm, the blood velocity is 30.0 cm/s in the aorta,
and the total cross-sectional area of the major arteries is 20.0 cm^2. (b) What is the total flow rate in cm^3/s and liters/minute? (c) On the assumption that all
the blood in the circulatory system goes through the capillaries, and given that the average velocity of the blood in the capillaries is 3.00 x 10^(-2) cm/s, what is the
total cross-sectional area of the capillaries?
