What relationship(s) is/are described by the equation of continuity?
The equation of continuity describes the relationship between cross-sectional area and flow velocity of a fluid.
cgs unit of pressure
Dyne/cm^2
cgs unit of force
Dyne
cgs unit of friction
Poise
Name the flow:
Fluid flow is very organized with layers of fluid flowing parallel to the walls of the vessel.
Laminar
Name the flow:
Flow velocity is highest near the centre of the vessel, and gets gradually slower towards the edges of the vessel.
Laminar
Name the flow:
Fluid flow is disorganized, with eddies and small discrete portions of the fluid flowing in different directions.
Turbulent
Name the flow:
In general, flow velocity is uniform from the walls of the vessel right through the centre of the vessel.
Turbulent
Relates flow rate to the pressure change along a vessel.
Poiseuille’s Law
What's the Poiseuille's Law formula, roughly?
Q = pi*r^4*Δp/8(mu)L
1 mol of gas occupies ___ at STP
22.4 L

Universal gas constant
THE BUBBLE LAW
La Place's Law
The sum of partial pressures in a gaseous mixture is equal to the total pressure of the mixture

Hyperbaric
Lower than normal absolute pressure (relative to 1 atm)
Hypobaric
Greater than normal partial pressures of oxygen gas are delivered to a patient
Hyperbaric
Lower than normal partial pressures of oxygen gas are received by a patient
Hypobaric
According to _______ Law, the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture is the pressure it would exert if it occupied the entire volume alone
Dalton's Law
The fractional concentration of oxygen present or being delivered to a patient
FO2
The fractional concentration of oxygen inspired by the patient and measured at the _____
FIO2; carina
The area at the end of the trachea where the airway divides into right and left bronchi
Carina
Attractive/repulsive forces b/w molecules
Vanderwaal's forces
What are the two Vanderwaal's forces (ignoring London forces)
Dipole-dipole, hydrogen bonding
Attractive forces between similar molecules
Cohesion
Attractive forces between unlike molecules
Adhesion
The net inward force on the surface molecules causes the surface of a liquid to contract and resist being stretched or broken --- a property called:
surface tension

High surface tension would act to ________ the surface area of our lungs, and our lungs would tend to _______
decrease; collapse
How do our lungs prevent surface tension from killing us all?
PULMONARY SURFACTANT
What is surfactant?
Mostly phospholipid with some protein, produced by a type 2 cell
What type of therapy can further exacerbate ARDS?
Oxygen therapy
