Concept Simulation 11.1 reviews the concept that plays the central role in this problem.
(a) The volume flow rate in an artery supplying the brain is 2.2 x 10-6 m3/s. If the radius of the artery is 4.5 mm, determine the average blood speed.
(b) Find the average blood speed as a constriction in the artery if the constriction reduces the radius by a factor of 4. Assume that the volume flow rate is the same as that in part (a).
