When a vein is cut does blood pump out in time with the heart beat?

No, you generally have high'ish blood pressure so when you get a cut it will just pore out until the pressure drops to 0. But by then you will probably be dead because of blood loss.
However in minor wounds scabs form up very quickly so it is unlikely you'll die from a paper cut!

About how many times does the heart beat each minute to pump blood around the body?
There is around 5 litres of blood in your body at any given time and the heart pumps on average 70 ml of blood per beat. Most people have an average resting heart rate of about 70 beats a minute (approximately). So if you multiply the amount of blood that the heart can pump by the number of beats per minute, you actually get around 4.9 litres of blood, almost all of it. So, in a minute, you will pump all the blood througout your body.

because the heart pumps the blood around the body and the pulse there is blood and the blood comes from the heart so heart controls the body second after the brain,let me explain it in this waay in the pulse there is bloood and the blood makes the bump and weher does the blood come from the heart that is a why they pump together and you breath at the same time

Why does a heart beat faster in the young?
the heart is just like any other muscle, it has to grow and be worked to get strong. The heart gets stronger when a person does cardiovascular workouts. As the heart gets stronger it will beat less often because it is able to pump more blood per beat. so it follows that a heart in a young person would beat faster because they would not have had time to train their heart.
How much time does it take for blood to go from the heart to lungs?
Within a single heart beat.
How does a robo heart work?
A robo-heart works as it does because the motor compresses the left chamber to pump the oxygenated blood out into the body. At the same time the right chamber sucks in the deoxygenated blood to fill it up. then the right chamber is compressed to pump deoxygenated blood to the lungs. The left chamber opens to collect oxygenated blood from the lungs. Special sensors detect the body's movement and changes pace of the beat.
Each time the heart beats what does it do to blood-?
It simply keeps it circulating throughout the body. Your heart is the one muscle that works all the time and keeps you alive. Your mind and your heart basically depend on each other. The mind tells the heart when to beat, and the heart pumps oxygen-rich blood to the mind. But really all the heart does is allow blood circulation through your body. Best to eat healthy to avoid disturbances in its work, which are usually lethal. (Life threatening.)
How does physical activity affect the heart?
It works the heart by increasing the beats thus making it stronger over time.
How can i Distinguish between diastolic and systolic?
Systolic blood pressure: is the pressure of blood flowing through the arteries every time the heart contracts. When the heart contracts (squeezes blood out of the heart) it is known as systole. Diastolic blood pressure: is your blood pressure when your heart is relaxed (resting time between each heart beat). This is known as diastolic. Hope this helped:-)
How do valves prevent blood from flowing in the wrong direction?
valves help prevent blood from flowing in the wrong direction by opening and closing at the right time to let the heart pump blood effectively.
Do the right and left side of the heart pump blood at the same time?
