A collapsible plastic bag (figure below) contains a glucose solution. If the average gauge pressure in the vein is 1.29 A collapsible plastic bag (figure below) contains 103 Pa, what must be the minimum height h of the bag in order to infuse glucose into the vein? Assume the specific gravity of the solution is 1.05.

Answer:

0.125 m

Explanation:

Pressure in fluids is given as the product of density, height and acceleration due to gravity and expressed as

P=hdg

Where h is the height, d is density, g is acceleration due to gravity and P is pressure.

Making h the subject of formula then

h=P/dg

Given specific gravity of a substance, its density is equal to specific gravity multiplied by density of water. Taking density of pure water as 1000 kg/m³ then the density of reference fluid will be 1.05*1000=1050 kg/m³

Substituting pressure with 1.29*10³ pa as given then taking g as 9.81 m/s² then

H=1.29*10³÷(9.81*1050)=0.1252366389981068880151448958788408329692m

Rounded off, the height is approximately 0.125 m
