Blood is flowing through an artery at 15 cm/s. The artery has a diameter of 3.44 mm. However, plaque buildup has reduced the diameter of the artery by 25% in one area. What is the speed of the blood in the constricted part of the artery. Neglecting viscosity, what is the pressure difference in the constricted part of the artery compared with that in the non-constricted portion.

plaque build up on the walls of an artery could
decrease its diameter from 1.1 cm to 0.83 cm. The speed of bloodflow was 13 cm/s before getting to the region of plaque buildup.
(a) what is the speed of blood flow within the plaque region.
cm/s

(b) calculate the pressure drop within the plaque region. (You canassume that blood has the same density as water.)
