This is Giancoli Answers
with Mr. Dychko.

00:00:03.660 --> 00:00:07.120
The volume rate of flow of blood
through this needle is gonna be

00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:10.260
<i>π</i> times radius of the needle
to the power of 4 times

00:00:10.260 --> 00:00:13.560
the pressure difference between
the top of the IV bag

00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:17.960
and the person's blood pressure—

00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:21.680
that's an important point there that I'm gonna
elaborate on in a second—

00:00:21.780 --> 00:00:25.740
and that's divided by 8 times
the viscosity of blood

00:00:25.740 --> 00:00:27.080
times the length of the needle.

00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:30.800
So pressure two is gonna be

00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:34.640
the pressure of the patient's blood
in their arm

00:00:34.680 --> 00:00:35.660
so that's gonna be...

00:00:35.660 --> 00:00:38.600
we are told that it's 78 torr above
atmospheric pressure

00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:40.380
so it's <i>P a</i> plus 78 torr.

00:00:40.620 --> 00:00:48.740
<i>P 1</i> is the pressure due to
the column of blood

00:00:48.740 --> 00:00:50.560
from the bag to the needle

00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:54.700
so this is the pressure in the needle
and this is the pressure in the arm

00:00:54.820 --> 00:00:58.340
and the needle pressure is gonna be
atmospheric pressure plus

00:00:58.420 --> 00:01:02.960
the pressure due to the height of

00:01:03.060 --> 00:01:06.980
the column of blood from
the needle to the bag.

00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:09.780
So substituting each of these in,

00:01:09.780 --> 00:01:13.540
we have <i>P 1</i> is gonna be <i>P a</i> plus

00:01:13.620 --> 00:01:16.060
density of blood times <i>g</i> times
height of the bag

00:01:16.180 --> 00:01:19.420
minus the pressure in the patient's arm

00:01:19.420 --> 00:01:22.140
which is atmospheric pressure plus 78 torr.

00:01:22.600 --> 00:01:28.180
So this pressure difference then is gonna be
<i>ρgh</i> minus 78 torr

00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:32.600
and then we have to solve this for <i>h</i>

00:01:32.720 --> 00:01:35.400
so we'll multiply both sides by

00:01:35.400 --> 00:01:39.440
8<i>ηl</i> over <i>πR</i> to the power of 4

00:01:39.500 --> 00:01:42.120
and we end up with this line here
after you switch the sides around

00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:47.480
and then add 78 torr to both sides
and then divide by <i>ρ</i> and <i>g</i>

00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:52.980
and you get the height is 1 over density
times <i>g</i> times 8<i>ηlQ</i> over

00:01:52.980 --> 00:01:55.500
<i>πR  to the power of 4</i> plus 78 torr

00:01:55.780 --> 00:01:59.820
and then plug in some numbers
taking care to convert units

00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:03.820
and this diameter should be divided by
2 to get radius.

00:02:04.160 --> 00:02:08.720
So we have 1 over 1.05 times 10 to the 3
kilograms per cubic meter

00:02:08.860 --> 00:02:11.100
times 9.8 newtons per kilogram

00:02:11.160 --> 00:02:15.420
and then—you can see what it looks like
in the calculator too—

00:02:15.640 --> 00:02:19.520
times 8 times 4 times 10 to the minus
3 pascal seconds—

00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:22.560
viscosity of blood—times 25 times
10 to the minus 3 meters—

00:02:22.620 --> 00:02:24.560
length of the needle—

00:02:24.700 --> 00:02:28.580
times 2.0 centimeters cubed per minute
is the volume rate of flow

00:02:28.580 --> 00:02:30.900
which we have to convert into
cubic meters per second

00:02:30.980 --> 00:02:33.620
so times by 1 meter for every
100 centimeters cubed

00:02:33.760 --> 00:02:37.220
and then multiply by 1 minute for
every 60 seconds...

00:02:37.440 --> 00:02:40.220
(what just happened there...

00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:43.200
there we go!)

00:02:43.420 --> 00:02:52.140
and then divide all that by <i>π</i>
times the diameter over 2

00:02:52.140 --> 00:02:55.460
so that's 0.80 times 10 to the minus
3 meters over 2

00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:57.140
all that to the power of 4

00:02:57.200 --> 00:02:59.720
and then add 78 torr converted
into pascals by

00:02:59.720 --> 00:03:02.800
multiplying by 133 pascals per torr

00:03:02.920 --> 00:03:10.340
and all of this works out to 1.04
which is about 1.0 meters

00:03:10.420 --> 00:03:14.360
and that's the required height
of the IV bag.
