In a major human artery with an internal diameter of 5 mm, the flow of blood, averaged over the cardiac cycle, is 5 cm³.s1. The artery bifurcates (splits) into two identical blood vessels that are each 3 mm in diameter. What are the average velocity and the mass flow rate upstream and downstream of the bifurcation? The density of blood Is 1.06 g.cm³. utd
