Study Notes
- Bernoulli's principle dictates that for an inviscid flow, fluid speed increases in tandem with a decrease in pressure or potential energy.
Wing Lift Generation
- Airplane wings are designed so air flows faster over the top surface compared to the bottom.
- Faster airflow results in lower pressure, while slower airflow leads to higher pressure.
- This pressure difference generates lift, propelling the wing and airplane upward.
Bernoulli’s Equation
- The incompressible flow equation is $v^2/2 + gz + p/ρ = constant$.
- $v$ is fluid flow speed
- $g$ is gravitational acceleration
- $z$ is elevation
- $p$ is pressure
- $ρ$ is fluid density.
Venturi Effect
- The Venturi effect describes the reduction in fluid pressure when a fluid passes through a constricted section of a pipe.
- Fluid speed increases at the constriction to maintain mass flow rate.
- Pressure decreases at the constriction to conserve energy.
Exercice 1
- $f$ is an endomorphism of $\mathbb{R}^3$.
- The matrix in the canonical basis is $A = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 1 & -1 \ 1 & 1 & 1 \ 1 & 1 & 1 \end{pmatrix}$
- $Ker(f) = Vect \left{ \begin{pmatrix} -1 \ 1 \ 0 \end{pmatrix}\right}$
- $Im(f) = Vect \left{ \begin{pmatrix} 1 \ 1 \ 1 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 1 \ 1 \ 1 \end{pmatrix} \right} = Vect \left{ \begin{pmatrix} 1 \ 1 \ 1 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} -1 \ 1 \ 0 \end{pmatrix} \right}$
- $Ker(f) \cap Im(f) = {0}$, $dim(Ker(f)) + dim(Im(f)) = 1 + 2 = 3 = dim(\mathbb{R}^3)$.
- $Ker(f)$ and $Im(f)$ are supplementary.
- $B = (u_1, u_2, u_3)$ is a basis of $\mathbb{R}^3$ such that $u_1 \in Ker(f)$ and $u_2, u_3 \in Im(f)$.
- The matrix of $f$ in the base $B$ is of the form: $A' = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & * & * \ 0 & * & * \ 0 & * & * \end{pmatrix}$
Exercice 2
- $f$ is an endomorphism of $\mathbb{R}^3$.
- The matrix in the canonical basis is $A = \begin{pmatrix} 5 & -4 & 4 \ 1 & 0 & 2 \ -2 & 2 & -1 \end{pmatrix}$
- The eigenvalues of $f$ are $\lambda_1 = 1$ and $\lambda_2 = 2$.
- $f$ is diagonalizable because the sum of the dimensions of the eigenspaces is equal to the dimension of the vector space.
- A basis of eigenvectors is given by: $B = \left{ \begin{pmatrix} 2 \ 1 \ 0 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} -2 \ 0 \ 1 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 1 \ 1 \ 0 \end{pmatrix} \right}$
- $P = \begin{pmatrix} 2 & -2 & 1 \ 1 & 0 & 1 \ 0 & 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$ and $D = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \ 0 & 1 & 0 \ 0 & 0 & 2 \end{pmatrix}$ such that $A = PDP^{-1}$.

Atherosclerosis
- Plaque buildup in arteries that can lead to heart attack and stroke.
Stroke
- Interruption of blood supply to the brain, potentially causing permanent brain damage.

- Interruption of blood supply to the heart, potentially causing permanent heart damage.
Diagram of the Heart
- The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body via the superior and inferior vena cava.
- Deoxygenated blood flows from the right atrium through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.
- The right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery.
- The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs.
- The lungs are where blood becomes oxygenated.
- The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium.
- The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the pulmonary veins.
- Oxygenated blood flows from the left atrium through the mitral valve to the left ventricle.
- The left ventricle then pumps oxygenated blood through the aortic valve into the aorta.
- The aorta distributes oxygenated blood to the body.
- The inferior vena cava returns deoxygenated blood from the lower body to the right atrium.
- The superior vena cava returns deoxygenated blood from the upper body to the right atrium.
- The left ventricle wall is thicker than the right ventricle wall, reflecting the greater force needed to pump blood throughout the body..
