A- Blood flow from the left ventricle into the aorta can be modeled as a reducing nozzle (Figure below). Model both the left ventricle and the aorta as a tube with diameter of 3.1 and 2.7 cm, respectively. The pressure in the left ventricle is 130 mmHg and the pressure in the aorta is 123 mmHg. Blood is ejected from the left ventricle at a speed of 120 cm/s. Calculate the difference in height between these two locations.
