Question

1) An open-tube mercury manometer is used to measure the pressure in an oxygen tank. The atmospheric pressure is 1020 mbarmbar . 1 barbar = 105105 N/m2N/m2. The density of mercury is 13.6×103kg/m313.6×103kg/m3.

part a) Determine the absolute pressure (in PaPa) in the tank if the height of the mercury in the open tube is 21.5 cmcm higher than the mercury in the tube connected to the tank.

part b)Determine the absolute pressure (in PaPa) in the tank if the height of the mercury in the open tube is 8.6 cmcm lower than the mercury in the tube connected to the tank.

2)The radius of the aorta is about 1.0 cmcm , and the blood passing through it has a speed of about 40 cm/scm/s . 

Calculate the average speed of blood flow in the major arteries of the body, which have a total cross-sectional area of about 1.9 cm2cm2 .
3) What is the lift (in newtons) due to Bernoulli's principle on a wing of area 92 m2m2 if the air passes over the top and bottom surfaces at speeds of 290 m/sm/s and 150 m/sm/s, respectively?
4) A crane lifts the 21000 kgkg steel hull of a ship out of the water.
part a) Determine the tension in the crane's cable when the hull is submerged in the water.
part b) Determine the tension when the hull is completely out of the water.
5)If cholesterol buildup reduces the diameter of an artery by 23 %%, by what %% will the blood flow rate be reduced, assuming the same pressure difference?
