    Figuring Force For United of Pressure

    Homework Statement Blood is pumped through the body with a pressure of 10kPa, a droplet weighs about 0.0012kg. If a vein were to be cut open and droplet of blood was pumped through the opening, how fast/far would it travel? Homework Equations F = ma The Attempt at a Solution I...

    What is the average air resistance for a person?

    Er. Thanks for the help, you two, but I really haven't got an answer for this. Is there one?

    What is the average air resistance for a person?

    Oh, right. I forgot to include that I was using a value of 0.7 for my drag coefficient. Sorry.

    What is the average air resistance for a person?

    I can't seem to come up with a decent formula/accepted value for air resistance. I realize there are things that need to be taken into account, but I am already delving into things way beyond what I've done per the course work, and I don't want to bite off more than I can chew. I understand...

    Finding the Velocity of a Bullet Inside the Barrel

    Thanks a billion, but I figure out the problem through more...logical channels. I just did some more researched and used the velocity as a starting point, rather than using the Normal Force (in psi, no less) These numbers make much more sense to me: Velocity: 348 m/s Mass = 0.01kg Normal...

    Finding the Velocity of a Bullet Inside the Barrel

    I must have fudged my normal force. The acceleration is too fast by about two decimal places. p.s: Oh...er...sorry about putting this in the wrong forum.

    Finding the Velocity of a Bullet Inside the Barrel

    Ok, I'm not the best physics student and I may have bitten off a bit more than I can chew with this project I am trying to find the velocity of a bullet while it is inside the barrel of a gun at three different points. The mass of the bullet is 13g, and the Force acting on the bullet is...
