The resistivity of blood is related to its hematocrit, the volume fraction of red blood cells in the blood. A commonly used equation relating the hematocrit h to the blood resistivity rho (in Ω⋅m) is rho=1.32/(1−h)−0.79. In one experiment, blood filled a graduated cylinder with an inner diameter of 0.90 cm. The resistance of the blood between the 1.0 cm and 2.0 cm marks of the cylinder was measured to be 198 Ω.

Required:
What was the hematocrit for this blood?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]0.35598[/tex]

Explanation:

r = Radius = [tex]\dfrac{0.9}{2}=0.45\ \text{cm}[/tex]

R = Resistance = [tex]198\ \Omega[/tex]

A = Area = [tex]\pi r^2[/tex]

l = Length of blood in cylinder = 1 cm

h = Hematocrit of the blood

Resistivity is given by

[tex]\rho=\dfrac{1.32}{1-h}-0.79[/tex]

Resistance is given by

[tex]R=(\dfrac{1.32}{1-h}-0.79)\dfrac{l}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow h=1-\dfrac{1.32}{\dfrac{R\pi r^2}{l}+0.79}\\\Rightarrow h=1-\dfrac{1.32}{\dfrac{198\times \pi\times (0.45\times 10^{-2})^2}{0.01}+0.79}\\\Rightarrow h=0.35598[/tex]

The hematocrit of the blood is [tex]0.35598[/tex].

Explanation:

A particle move in the xy plane so that its position vector r=bcosQi +bsinQj+ ctk, where b, Q and c are constants. show that the partial move with constant speed.​

Answers

Answer:

The speed of this particle is constantly [tex]c[/tex].

Explanation:

Position vector of this particle at time [tex]t[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle \mathbf{r}(t) = b\, \cos(Q)\, \mathbf{i} + b\, \sin(Q) \, \mathbf{j} + c\, t\, \mathbf{k}[/tex].

Write [tex]\mathbf{r}(t)[/tex] as a column vector to distinguish between the components:

[tex]\mathbf{r}(t) = \begin{bmatrix}b\, \cos(Q) \\ b\, \sin(Q) \\ c\, t\end{bmatrix}[/tex].

Both [tex]b[/tex] and [tex]Q[/tex] are constants. Therefore, [tex]b\, \cos(Q)[/tex] and [tex]b \sin (Q)[/tex] would also be constants with respect to [tex]t[/tex]. Hence, [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[b\, \cos(Q)] = 0[/tex] and [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[b\, \sin(Q)] = 0[/tex].

Differentiate [tex]\mathbf{r}(t)[/tex] (component-wise) with respect to time [tex]t[/tex] to find the velocity vector of this particle at time [tex]t\![/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\mathbf{v}(t) &= \frac{\rm d}{{\rm d} t} [\mathbf{r}(t)] \\ &=\frac{\rm d}{{\rm d} t} \left(\begin{bmatrix}b\, \cos(Q) \\ b\, \sin(Q) \\ c\, t\end{bmatrix}\right) \\ &= \begin{bmatrix}\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[b\, \cos(Q)] \\[0.5em] \displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[b\, \sin(Q)]\\[0.5em]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[c \cdot t]\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}0 \\ 0 \\ c\end{bmatrix}\end{aligned}[/tex].

The speed [tex]v[/tex] (a scalar) of a particle is the magnitude of its velocity :

[tex]\begin{aligned}v(t) &= \| \mathbf{v}(t) \| \\ &= \left\|\begin{bmatrix}0 \\ 0 \\ c\end{bmatrix}\right\| \\ &= \sqrt{0^2 + 0^2 + c^2} = c\end{aligned}[/tex].

Therefore, the speed of this particle is constantly [tex]c[/tex] (a constant.)

Captain Jack Sparrow has been marooned on an island in the Atlantic by his crew, and decides to builda raft to escape. The wind seems quite steady, and first blows him due east for 11km, and then 6km ina direction 6degrees north of east. Confident that he will eventually find himself in safety, he fallsasleep. When he wakes up, he notices the wind is now blowing him gently 11degrees south of east -but after traveling for 21km, he finds himself back on the island.

How far (in km) did the wind blow him while he was sleeping?

Answers

Answer:

    d₃ = 37,729 km,     θ=  5.1º North of West

Explanation:

This is a velocity addition problem, the easiest way to solve it is to decompose the velocities in a Cartesian system, the x-axis coincides with the West-East direction and the y-axis with the South-North direction

* first displacement is

           d₁ₓ = 11 km

* second offset is

          cos 6 = d₂ₓ / d₂

          sin 6 = d_{2y} / d₂

          d₂ₓ = d₂ cos 6

          d_{2y} = d₂ sin 6

          d₂ₓ = 6 cos 6 = 5.967 km

          d_{2y} = 6 sin 6 = 0.6272 km

* third displacement is unknown

* fourth and last displacement

          cos (-11) = d₄ₓ / d₄

          sin (-11) = d_{4y} / d₄

          d₄ₓ = d₄ cos (-11)

          d_{4y} = d₄ sin (-11)

          d₄ₓ = 21 cos (-11) = 20.61 km

          d_{4y} = 21 sin (-11) = -4.007 km

They tell us that at the end of the tour you are back on the island, so the displacement must be zero

X axis

           x = d₁ₓ + d₂ₓ + d₃ₓ + d₄ₓ

           0 = 11 +5.967 + d₃ₓ + 20.61

           d₃ₓ = -11 - 5.967 - 20.61

           d₃ₓ = -37.577 km

Y axis  

          y = d_{1y} + d_{2y} + d_{3y} + d_{4y}

          0 = 0 + 0.6272 + d_{3y} -4.007

          d_{3y} = 4.007 - 0.6272

          d_{3y} = 3.3798 km

This distance can be given in the form of module and angle

Let's use the Pythagorean theorem for the module

           d₃ = [tex]\sqrt{d_{3x}^2 + d_{3y}^2}[/tex]

           d₃ = [tex]\sqrt{37.577^2 + 3.3798^2}[/tex]

           d₃ = 37,729 km

Let's use trigonometry for the angle

            tan θ = d_{3y} / d₃ₓ

            θ = tan⁻¹ [tex]\frac{d_{3y}}{d_{3x}}[/tex]

            θ = tan-1 (-3.3798 / 37.577)

            θ = 5.1º

Since the y coordinate is positive and the x coordinate is negative, this angle is in the second quadrant, so the direction given in the form of cardinal coordinates is

            θ=  5.1º North of West

A dog finds a toy at rest on the floor. The dog pushes the toy horizontally on a frictionless floor with a net force of 2.0 Newtons for 3.0 meters. How much kinetic energy does the toy gain? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.​

Answers

Answer:

the kinetic energy gained by the toy is 6J.

Explanation:

Given;

net applied to the toy by dog, F = 2 N

distance moved by the toy, d = 3 m

Apply the principle of work-energy theorem to determine the kinetic energy gained by the toy.

ΔK.E = W

         = F x d

         = 2 x 3

         = 6 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy gained by the toy is 6J.

An electric heater Consumes 1.8 MJ When connected to a 250V supply for 30 minutes. Find the power rating of the heater and the current taken from the supply

Answers

Answer:

a. Power = 1000 Watts or 1 Kilowatts.

b. Current = 4 Amperes.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Energy consumed = 1.8MJ = 1.8 × 10^6 = 1800000 Joules

Voltage = 250V

Time = 30 minutes to seconds = 30 * 60 = 1800 seconds

To find the power rating;

Power = energy/time

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Power = 1800000/1800

Power = 1000 Watts or 1 Kilowatts.

b. To find the current taken from the supply;

Power = current * voltage

1000 = current * 250

Current = 1000/250

Current = 4 Amperes.

Help plsssssssssss I write it 100 time no one answer

Answers

Answer:

1.93×10²⁸ s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of electron (e) = 2×10²⁴

Current (I) = 10 A

Time (t) =?

Next, we shall determine the quantity of electricity flowing through pasing through the point. This can be obtained as follow:

1 e = 96500 C

Therefore,

2×10²⁴ e = 2×10²⁴ e × 96500 / 1 e

2×10²⁴ e = 1.93×10²⁹ C

Thus, 1.93×10²⁹ C of electricity is passing through the point.

Finally, we shall determine the time. This can be obtained as follow:

Current (I) = 10 A

Quantity of electricity = 1.93×10²⁹ C

Time (t) =?

Q = it

1.93×10²⁹ = 10 × t

Divide both side by 10

t = 1.93×10²⁹ / 10

t = 1.93×10²⁸ s

Thus, it took 1.93×10²⁸ s for 2×10²⁴ electrons to pass through the point
