aneurysm forms in a small blood vessel through which
blood travels at 3 m·s–1. The
diameter of the blood vessel increases by 20%. What is the increase
in pressure inside this aneurysm?
(ρblood= 1060 kg·m–3.)
using the continuity equation we have
A1v1 = A2v2
pi/4*d1^2 * v1 = pi/4*d2^2 * v2
(d)^2 * 3 = (1.2d)^2 * v2
v2 = 2.083 m/s
Using Bernoulli's equation we have
P1 + 0.5pv1^2 = P2 + 0.5pv2^2
P2 - P1 = 0.5*p ( v1^2 - v2^2)
= 0.5*1060 * ( 3^2 - 2.083^2)
= 247 Pa
so increase in pressure is 247 Pa

Question 7 1 pts Which of the following statements is false? An aneurysm in an artery leads to a locally elevated blood pressure. Plaque deposit on an artery or arteriole wall leads to a decreased local blood pressure O Plaque deposit on an artery or arteriole wall causes an increase in local blood pressure and can lead to bursting of that vessel. The speed of the blood increases as it moves through a region of an artery with plaque deposit....

?Blood from a supine patient
flowing through the internal carotid artery is measured to be
42.6 cm/s. The base of the artery measures 4.85 mm and the blood
pressure at this point is

The blood pressure at your heart is approximately 100 mm of Hg. As blood is pumped from the left ventricle of your heart, it flows through the aorta, a single large blood vessel with a diameter of about 2.5 cm. The speed of blood flow in the aorta is about 60 cm/s. Any change in pressure as blood flows in the aorta is due to the change in height: the vessel is large enough that viscous drag is not a...
The human heart delivers a blood flow of about 5000ml/min. The diameter of the blood vessel leaving the heart is 1.8cm. Determine the Re of the flow in this vessel. Is the flow laminar or turbulent? Explain. The smallest blood vessels have a diameter of 10mm and a total area about 1000 times greater than the area of the vessel leaving the heart. Determine the Re in a typical capillary. By what factor does the diameter of a capillary have...
A section of blood vessel wall has become weakened resulting in an increase in the vessel wall diameter of 32%. For this question treat blood as an incompressible non viscous fluid of density 1050 kg m−3. If the vessel normally carries blood at a speed of 1.2 m s−1 then what is the magnitude of the increase in pressure in the bulge in the blood vessel? (to 2 s.f and in Pa)

Please Explain Why the correct answer is correct
3. Blood flows through an artery with a partial blockage, which narrows the diameter of the blood vessel for a small segment of the total length. How does the pressure in the narrow portion of the blood vessel compare to the pressure just before the partial blockage? Assume that frictional effects have a negligible impact on the situation. a. The pressure is higher in the narrow portion b. The pressure is the...

BLOOD AND FLUID QUESTION 1 (0A patient's blood pressure taken at the arm is 120 mmHg systolic and 70 mmHg diastolic. What would you expect the blood pressure (systolic and diastolic pressures) to be at the top of the head given that this point is 40 cm above the measurement point? Remember blood pressure is a gauge pressure and that 1 kPa = 7.5 mmHg. (The density of blood is about 1060 kg/m.) Choose one: a. 89...
