1. Calculating flow and velocity (1pt)
Name:
Lana has a 2 meter long clear plastic pipe attached to a water tower. She puts a bucket under the pipe opening
and finds that 1L of water emerges in a minute. She puts a rubber ducky in the water tower, and when the ducky
enters the pipe she uses a stopwatch and determines that it takes the ducky 5 seconds to travel the length of the
pipe.
Calculate the flow of water in the pipe.

b. When air enters the pleural cavity (a condition called a pneumothorax), one of the effects is that the
pressure in the thorax increases, which increases the pressure in the venae cava (see figures below).

Normal:
Left Ventricle:
High Pressure
(~90mmHg)
Vena cava:
Low Pressure
(~3mmHg)
With Pneumothorax:
Left Ventricle:
High Pressure
(~90mmHg)
Vena Cava:
Higher than no
(~ 9mmHg)
Assuming no other changes in the system, how would an increase in pressure in the vena cava affect blood f
Answer in terms of pressure gradients.
