Question: BLOOD FLOW Consider an artery of length L cm and radius R cm. Using Poiseuille's law (page 131), it can be shown that the rate at which blood flows through the artery (measured in cubic centimeters/second) is given by
V = 0∫R (k/L) x(R2 - x2) dx
Where k is a constant. Find an expression for V that does not involve an integral.
