About 70 g of blood is pumped from a person's heart into the aorta during each heartbeat. The blood starts at rest with respect to the body and has a speed of about 1.2 m/s in the aorta. If the pumping takes 0.15 s, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the heart on the blood?

A suspicious physics student watches a stunt performed at an ice show. In the stunt, a performer shoots an arrow into a bale of hay (Fig. P11.24). Another performer rides on the bale of hay like a cowboy. After the arrow enters the bale, the balearrow system slides roughly 5 m along the ice. Estimate the initial speed of the arrow. Is there a trick to this stunt? FIGURE P11.24
Leah is competing in the national diving championships. She has a mass of 67 kg and leaves the springboard from a height of 2.9 meters above the water surface with a speed of 5.83 m/s in the upward direction. a) Determine Leah’s speed in m/s when she strikes the water. b) Leah’s body plunges to a depth of 2.12 meters below the water surface before coming to a stop. Determine the magnitude of the average force of water resistance in Newtons experienced by her body
*105. Go ssm An ancurysm is an abnormal enlargement of a blood vessel such as the aorta. Because of the aneurysm, the normal cross-sectional area Aj of the aorta increases to a value of A, = 1.7Aj. The speed of the blood (p = 1060 kg/m³) through a normal portion of the aorta is v, = 0.40 m/s. Assuming that the aorta is horizontal (the person is lying down), determine the amount by which the pressure P, in the enlarged region exceeds the pressure P, in the normal region.
In a research facility, a person lies on a horizontal platform which floats on a film of air. When the person's heart beats, it pushes a mass m of blood into the aorta with speed v, and the body and platform move in the opposite direction with speed V. Assume that the blood's speed is 56.5 cm/s. The mass of the person + platform is 54.0 kg. The platform moves 5.95 ✕ 10−5 m in 0.160 s after one heartbeat. Calculate the mass (in g) of blood that leaves the heart. Assume that the mass of blood is negligible compared with the total mass of the person, and the person + platform is initially at rest. (Also assume that the changes in velocity are instantaneous.)
A 4.55 kg steel ball is dropped onto a copper plate from a height of 10.0 m. If the ball leaves a dent 2.75 mm deep in the plate, what is the average force exerted by the plate on the ball during the impact?
A 4.55 kg steel ball is dropped onto a copper plate from a height of 10.0 m. If the ball leaves a dent 2.75 mm deep in the plate, what is the average force exerted by the plate on the ball during the impact? I have asked once and the answer was wrong. They told me it was 162 and I am not for sure what is wrong.
A man pushing a crate of mass m = 92.0 kg at a speed of v = 0.870 m/s encounters a rough horizontal surface of length = 0.65 m as in the figure below. If the coefficient of v= kinetic friction between the crate and rough surface is 0.360 and he exerts a constant horizontal force of 293 N on the crate.

N direction opposite as the motion of the crate ✔ (b) Find the net work done on the crate while it is on the rough surface. 34.0 X The response you submitted has the wrong sign. J (c) Find the speed of the crate when it reaches the end of the rough surface. 0.573 x Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. m/s Need Help?

A horizontal water jet of constant velocity V from a stationary nozzle impinges normally on a vertical flat plate that rides on a nearly frictionless track. As the water jet hits the plate, it begins to move due to the water force. What is the highest velocity the plate can attain? Explain.
