63-YEAR OLD MAN WITH HYPERTENSION You have been diagnosed with hypertension‚ which is commonly known as high blood pressure. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the blood vessel walls. So with high blood pressure the arteries have constant raised blood pressure. Every time your heart beats it pumps blood to the whole body through the arteries. The higher your blood pressure is the harder your heart has to pump. Hypertension may be caused by many things but some examples are smoking

Chapter 3 Fluid Statics: Definitions Statics: ∑F = 0. In statics we have only pressure as surface force and weight as body force. Thus‚ when fluids are still‚ the pressure is balanced by the fluid weight. No relative motion between adjacent fluid layers. Shear stress is zero Only _______ can be acting on fluid surfaces Gravity force acts on the fluid (____ force) Applications: Pressure variation within a reservoir Forces on submerged surfaces Buoyant forces 9/4/2013 1 Pressure Pressure is defined

negligible loses‚ 3 standard flanged 90 smooth elbows (KL = 0.3 each)‚ and a sharp-edged exit (KL = 1.0). We choose points 1 and 2 at the free surfaces of the river and the tank‚ respectively. We note that the fluid at both points is open to the atmosphere (and thus P1 = P2 = Patm)‚ and the fluid velocity is 6 ft/s at point 1 and zero at point 2 (V1 = 6 ft/s and V2 =0). We take the free surface of the river as the reference level (z1 = 0). Then the energy equation for a control volume between these two

Lecture No. 5 CLASSIFICATION OF FLUID FLOW AND THE CONTINUITY EQUATION 5.1 Classification of Fluid Flow Uniform flow If the velocity of the fluid is the same in magnitude and direction at every point in the fluid the flow is said to be uniform. Non-uniform flow A non-uniform flow is one where the velocities at different points at a given instant are not the same. Every fluid that flows near a solid boundary will be non-uniform because the fluid at the boundary takes the velocity of the

The height of a column of fluid necessary to develop a specific pressure. The pressure of water at a given point in a pipe arising from the pressure in it. b. Total Discharge Head Total discharge head refers to the actual physical difference in height between the liquid level in the pit and the highest point of the discharge pipe or water level in

Fluid intelligence reflects information processing capabilities‚ reasoning‚ and memory. It is used to evolve the ability to think clearly. For instance‚ a person who is asked to arrange a series of letters according to some rule or to memorize a set of numbers uses fluid intelligence. Although it is defined as the inmate and learning caoacity of all individuals. To my knowledge fluid intelligence is used in so many ways‚ throughout the country. It normally affect’s children during childhood and
