$\frac{4}{3} \pi\left( R ^{3}- r ^{3}\right) \rho_{ m } g =\frac{4}{3} \pi R ^{3} \rho_{ w } g$

$1-\left(\frac{ r }{ R }\right)^{3}=\frac{8}{27}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{ r }{ R }=\left(\frac{19}{27}\right)^{1 / 3}=\frac{19^{1 / 3}}{3}$

$=0.88\simeq \frac{8}{ g }$

    Blood velocity: The flow of blood in a large artery of an anesthetised dog is diverted through a Venturi meter. The wider part of the meter has a crosssectional area equal to that of the artery. $A = 8\; mm^2$. The narrower part has an area $a = 4 \;mm^2$. The pressure drop in the artery is $24\; Pa$. What is the speed (in $m/s$) of the blood in the artery?
