Chapter 14, Problem 30SP
In a blood transfusion, blood flows from a bottle at atmospheric pressure into a patient’s vein in which the pressure is 20 mmHg higher than atmospheric. The bottle is 95 cm higher than the vein, and the needle into the vein has a length of 3.0 cm and an i.d. of 0.45 mm. How much blood flows into the vein each minute? For blood,

Systemic blood pressure is expressed as the ratio of the systolic pressure (when the heart first ejects blood into the arteries{max}) to the diastolic pressure (when the heart is relaxed{min}). Systemic pressure = Systolic pressure / diastolic pressure. Both pressures are measured at the level of the heart and are expressed in millimeters of mercury although the units are not written. Normal systemic blood pressure is 120/80. What are the maximum and minimum forces (in Newtons) that the blood exerts against each square centimeter of the heart for a person with high blood pressure, 145 / 85 ?
Note: this is a conversion question...follow the units.
