A large vessel of the diameter of 14 mm divides into two identical smaller vessels but the velocity of blood in
smaller vessels remain the same as the velocity of blood in the larger vessel. What is the diameter of the
smaller vessels?

Respuesta :

Answer:

the diameter of the smaller vessels is 9.90 mm

Explanation:

The computation of the diameter of the smaller vessels is given below;

Given that

The larger vessel of the diameter is 14mm

So,

d1 = 7 mm

let us assume the diameter of the smaller artery is d2

Now we used the equation of continuity i.e.

v × pi × d1^2 = 2 × v × pi × d2^2

14^2 = 2 × d2^2

d2 = 9.90 mm

Hence, the diameter of the smaller vessels is 9.90 mm
