Question

Transcribed Image Text:57. A room has a volume of 120 m³. An air-conditioning system is to
replace the air in this room every twenty minutes, using ducts that have a
square cross section. Assuming that air can be treated as an incompress-
ible fluid, find the length of a side of the square if the air speed within the
ducts is (a) 3.0 m/s and (b) 5.0 m/s.

- Balloon angioplasty is a technique to restore blood flow through coronary arteries that have been narrowed by the build-up of plaque. The surgeon threads a catheter into the coronary artery, then inflates a balloon that compresses the plaque against the wall of the artery. Suppose a diseased coronary artery has a diameter of 2.0 mm. To what diameter must it be expanded to increase the blood flow by a factor of 5.0 with no change in pressure?arrow_forwardBlood is flowing through an artery of radius 2.3 mm at a speed of 35 cm/s. a. Determine the flow rate through the artery, in cubic centimeters per second. b. Determine the volume, in cubic centimeters, that passes through the artery in a period of 30.0 s.arrow_forwardA tank holds a large amount of water.

The drawing shows a gas flowing at speed v₂ through a horizontal section of pipe whose cross- sectional area is A₂ = 0.0619 m². The gas has a density of p = 1.30 kg/m³. The Venturi meter has a cross-sectional area of A₁ = 0.0393 m² and has been substituted for a section of the larger pipe. The pressure difference between the two sections is P₂ - P₁ = 90.8 Pa. Find (a) the speed v₂ of the gas in the larger original pipe and (b) the volume flow rate Q of the gas. P₂ Hi (a) Number i (b) Number A1 Lo P₁ Venturi meter Units Units ()arrow_forward
