The hydrostatic blood pressure difference between the head and the feet of a boy standing straight is 1.65 x 104 Nm-2. Find the height of the boy.
[ Density of blood = 1.1 x 103 kgm-3, g = 10ms-2]
0.5 m
0.6 m
1.5 m
2.0 m
설명
[ Density of blood = 1.1 x 103 kgm-3, g = 10ms-2]
Pressure = pgh, where p = density, h = the height, g = acceleration of free fall due to gravity
1.6.5 x 104 = 1.1 x 103 x 10 x h
therefore h = 1.65 x 104/1.1 x 103 x 10 = 1.5m
Pressure = pgh, where p = density, h = the height, g = acceleration of free fall due to gravity
1.6.5 x 104 = 1.1 x 103 x 10 x h
therefore h = 1.65 x 104/1.1 x 103 x 10 = 1.5m
