Which is greater - the terminal velocity of a small blood droplet or the terminal velocity of a large blood droplet?

The small blood droplet would have a greater terminal velocity. The smaller droplet has a smaller surface area, thus suffers less air resistance.

What is the purpose of the Transcranial Doppler?
A Transcranial Doppler is a test used to test blood flow velocity as is flows through the brains blood vessels. Through emitting a high pitched sound, an ultrasound probe is able to measure the velocity of the blood flow.
Which would have the greater effect on vascular resistance?
decreasing the diameter of a blood vessel by ½by hussain :)
Is blood green under water?
YesAns2:I have bled many times under water. Never has the blood been green. At depths greater than 30 feet, most of the light is filtered out and all that is left is blue. The blood may appear green if you have an active imagination. Most would describe the color as black.
Is blood a newtonian fluid?
Fluid's obeying newton's law ofviscosityare calledNewtonianfluid. ie,shear stress induced on a liquid is directly proportional to it's velocity gradient.Which means,when the liquid is under stressed it's strain will be uniform.Which also means when stiring a liquid which will not change it's viscosity.Milk is aNewtonianfluid.
What are the definition or meaning of diastole?
definiton or meaning of diastole : Refers to the phase of the cardiac cycle when the heart is relaxed. This phase of the cardiac cycle contributes to the lower number in blood pressure readings, called the "diastolic blood pressure." A value of greater than 90 on three or more different readings over time is used to define hypertension.
What does high velocity blood spatter means in a crime scene?
High Velocity is short for "high terminal velocity" which is another way of saying that the blood spatter is small and is so small, in fact, it is the smallest of other velocities: • Low terminal velocity • Medium terminal velocity The high velocity pattern is usually less than one millimeter in diameter and is known to fall up to around 100 feet per second.
What has the most important effect on blood velocity?
Blood viscosity is the most important efect on blood velocity. Viscosity meaning how thin or thick the blood is. Velocity meaning the flow of blood. If the blood is too thick it's velocity will be slow. If the blood is thin, the blood will flow faster.
How do I work a blood sugar tester?
Working a blood sugar tester is very easy. All you have to do, is prick your finger with the needle, and put the blood droplet on the stick to get your result.
What is the velocity of the blood as it flows through the capillaries?
The average velocity of the blood as it flows through a capillary is 0.00047 m/s.
Where the velocity of blood flow is the lowest?
capillaries!
What vessels have the highest blood velocity?
arteries
What blood vessel has the lowest velocity?
capillaries
The velocity of blood is slowest in the?
capillaries.
What do the test strips for diabetes test for?
Diabetes test strips are used to test the level of blood sugar in a diabetic's blood. By pricking the fingertip and applying the blood droplet to the test strip the blood sugar is red by the monitor.
Does velocity of blood decreases as blood flows from the aorta towards the capillaries?
Yes
Explain relationship between the diameter of vessels and the velocity of blood?
