Pressure
A hospital patient receives an IV injection under gravity flow. If the blood (gauge) pressure in the vein is 20.0mm hg above what height should the IV bad be places in order to assure flow into the vein. Your normal blood ( gauge) pressure is expressed as 120/80 ( in mm Hg). Why is the blood pressure in the problem so low?

Fluid
High cholesterol in the blood can cause fatty deposits called plaques to form on the walls of the blood vessels suppose a plaque buildup reduces the effective radius of an artery by 25 persent. How does this parital blockage affect the speed of blood through the vein?

Hydraulic lift
In a car lift used by a service station, compressed air exerts a force on a small piston or radius 5 cm. This pressure is transmitted to a second piston of radius 15 cm. What force must the compressed air exert on the small piston to lift a car whose mass is 1200 kg? What compressed air pressure is necessary to produce this force? Is this a reasonable answer? Explain.

Law of floation
A bolloon is released from a tall building. The total mass of the balloon including the enclosed gas is 2.0 kg. Its volume is 5.0 m3. The density of air is 1.3 kg/m3 will the balloon rise fall or remainstationary and why?
a. The balloon will remain stationary because its density is less than that of air.
b. The balloon will remain stationary because its density is less than that of air.
c. The balloon will rise because the upward buoyant force is greater than its weight.
d. The balloon will fall because the upward buoyant force is less than its weight.
e. The balloon will fall because the downward buoyant force is greater than the upward buoyant force.
