Intravenous infusions are often made under gravity, as shown in Fig. 10-55. Assuming the fluid has a density of 1.00 g/cm3, at what height h should the bottle be placed so the liquid has the following pressure?
(a) 67 mm Hg
m
(b) 530 mm H2O
m
(c) If the blood pressure is 20 mm Hg above atmospheric pressure, how high should the bottle be placed so that the fluid just barely enters the vein?
