Q4(a) What are normal and shear stresses? Please give an example for each of them.
(b) One way of treating occlusion of blood vessels due to blood clots is to introduce
enzymes to assist in the dissolution of the clot Assume that this enzyme-catalyzed
reaction is a first-order reaction with a reaction constant k, the cylindrical blood vessel
has an original diameter d, and a clot thickness h. The enzyme is injected into the
vessel at a flow rate of Q and a concentration of c by a pressure difference P. The
density and viscosity of blood are and respectively. Use dimensional analysis to
express the dissolution time as a function of the variables in the problem.
(c) Consider the following enzymatic reactions
E+2Sk-1longrightarrowk1ES2k2E+P
i) Derive the enzyme kinetics using the Michaelis-Menten approach.
ii) Derive the enzyme kinetics using the Briggs-Haldane approach.
iii) Compare and contrast your answers in i) and ii)
