| 1 | \[ A_{aorta} = \pi \times (1\ \text{cm})^2 = \pi\ \text{cm}^2 \] | Calculate the cross-sectional area of the aorta given its radius \(1\ \text{cm}\). |
| 2 | \[ Q = A_{aorta} \times 30\ \frac{\text{cm}}{\text{s}} = 30\pi\ \frac{\text{cm}^3}{\text{s}} \] | Determine the volumetric flow rate in the aorta using the given speed \(30\ \frac{\text{cm}}{\text{s}}\). |
| 3 | \[ Q = A_{cap} \times v_{cap} \] | Apply the continuity equation where the volumetric flow rate \(Q\) in the aorta is equal to that in the capillaries.\(A_{cap}\) is the total cross-sectional area of the capillaries. |
| 4 | \[ v_{cap} = \frac{Q}{A_{cap}} = \frac{30\pi}{2000}\ \frac{\text{cm}}{\text{s}} \] | Solve for the average speed \(v_{cap}\) in the capillaries using the given total capillary area \(2000\ \text{cm}^2\). |
| 5 | \[ v_{cap} = \frac{30\pi}{2000} = \frac{3\pi}{200}\ \frac{\text{cm}}{\text{s}} \] | Simplify the expression by dividing numerator and denominator by 10. |

The figure shows a horizontal pipe with sections with different cross-sectional areas. Small tubes extend from the top of each section. The cross-sectional area of the pipe at location C is half that at A, and the areas at A and D are the same. Water flows in the pipe from left to right. Which of the following correctly ranks the height \( h \) of the water in the tubes above the labeled locations?
Two paper cups are suspended by strings and hung near each other. They are separated by about \( 10 \) \( \text{cm} \). Explain what happens to the cups when you blow air between them. Hint: Do they remain still, moves away from each other or move towards each other?
A fountain with an opening of radius \( 0.015 \) \( \text{m} \) shoots a stream of water vertically from ground level at \( 6.0 \) \( \text{m/s} \). The density of water is \( 1000 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 \).
A drinking fountain projects water at an initial angle of \( 50^ \circ \) above the horizontal, and the water reaches a maximum height of \( 0.150 \) \( \text{m} \) above the point of exit. Assume air resistance is negligible.
A Venturi tube has a pressure difference of \( 15\,000 \) \( \text{Pa} \). The entrance radius is \( 3 \) \( \text{cm} \), while the exit radius is \( 1 \) \( \text{cm} \). What are the entrance velocity, exit velocity, and flow rate if the fluid is gasoline \( (\rho = 700 \) \( \text{kg/m}^3 ) \)?
\(\frac{3\pi}{200}\ \text{cm/s} = \frac{\pi}{66.\overline{6}}\ \text{cm/s} \approx 0.0471\ \text{cm/s}\)

Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.Â
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
