PASSAGE: An intravenous (IV) infusion delivers normal saline to a patient by gravity. A vented bag of saline hangs so that the fluid surface is a height h above the catheter tip in the patient's arm. Saline flows down tubing of length L and internal radius r before entering a vein. Treat saline as incompressible with density rho = 1.0 x 10^3 kg/m^3 and dynamic viscosity eta; use g = 10 m/s^2. Laminar flow in the tubing obeys Poiseuille's law, Q = pi*r^4*(P1 - P2)/(8*eta*L). Farther downstream the vein passes through a short constricted segment where its radius is temporarily reduced; there the fluid is modeled as an ideal fluid obeying the continuity equation and Bernoulli's equation.
For h = 1.0 m, the gauge pressure contributed by the column of saline at the level of the catheter tip is closest to:

About this course
The real MCAT exam: ~7.5 hours · Chem/Phys, CARS, Bio/Biochem, Psych/Soc · scored 472-528. The free sample and Chapter 1 let you try the format; the full course covers every outline domain with chapter quizzes, a full-length diagnostic, and adaptive AI practice.
Every question is original, written from the published outline and public primary sources, and human-reviewed before publication — PrepTempo never reproduces actual exam content.
About this MCAT practice exam
MCAT practice exam FAQ
Is there a free MCAT practice exam or practice test?
Yes — free sample MCAT questions and free Chapter 1 with an account (no card). Unlock remaining chapters and the full final diagnostic with a course purchase.
Are these real MCAT exam questions?
No. Every PrepTempo question is original and written from public outlines and sources. We never copy live exam content.
Why does every answer choice have an explanation?
Answer keys only tell you the letter. Explaining why wrong options fail is how concepts stick under timed pressure.
