Homework Statement
A typical Arteriole has a diameter of .030 mm and carries blood at the rate of 5.5* 10^-6 cm^3/s. What is the speed of the blood in an arteriole?
Homework Equations
s=P/vρ
The Attempt at a Solution
Blood is made of mostly water, so I used the same ρ as water (ρ=1000), and multiplied by the velocity given. I have the diameter, but I am not sure what do do with it or how to find the pressure.
