Compared to normal blood flow velocity, v0, what is the velocity of blood as it passes through this blockage?
Arteriosclerotic plaques forming on the inner walls of arteries can decrease the effective cross-sectional area of an artery. Even small changes in the effective area of an artery can lead to very large changes in the blood pressure in the artery and possibly to the collapse of the blood vessel. Imagine a healthy artery, with blood flow velocity of v0=0.14m/s and mass per unit volume of ρ=1050kg/m3. The kinetic energy per unit volume of blood is given by K0=12ρv20. Imagine that plaque...
