Suppose that blood flows through the aorta with a speed of 0.35 m/s.
The cross-sectional area of the aorta is 2.0 x 10-4 m2.
- Find the volume flow rate of the blood.
- The aorta branches into tens of
thousands of capillaries whose total cross-sectional area is about 0.28 m2.
What is the average blood speed through them?
