In a major human artery with an internal diameter of 5mm, the flow of blood, averaged over the cardiac cycle is 5cm3·s−1. The artery bifurcates (splits) into two identical blood vessels that are each 3mm in diameter. What are the average velocity and the mass flow rate upstream and downstream of the bifurcation? The density of blood is 1.06g·cm−3

Explanation:

Assuming flow is uniform across the cross section of the artery, the mass flow rate is the product of the volumetric flow rate and the density.

  (5 cm³/s)(1.06 g/cm³) = 5.3 g/s

If we assume the blood splits evenly at the bifurcation, then the downstream mass flow rate in each artery is half that:

  (5.3 g/s)/2 = 2.65 g/s

__

The average velocity will be the ratio of volumetric flow rate to area. Upstream, that is ...

  (5 cm³/s)/(π(0.25 cm)²) ≈ 25.5 cm/s

Downstream, we have half the volumetric flow and a smaller area.

  (2.5 cm³/s)/(π(0.15 cm)²) ≈ 35.4 cm/s

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
