• Fora person at rest, the blood pressure in the aorta is 120 torr and the velocity of the blood is 25 cm/s. The person then goes for a brisk walk raising the blood velocity to 100 cm/s. Using Bernoulli's equation and assuming the height of the blood remains constant, calculate the blood pressure in the aorta during the brisk walk. Hint: Convert everything to standard units, for example, 1cm = 0.01 m. The standard unit for pressure is Pascal (Pa, although blood pressure is usually reported in torr). 1 torr = 133-32 Pa • (1 Pa = 1 kg. m.s).
