The aorta carries blood away from the heart at a speed of about 42 cm/s and has a diameter of approximately 1.1 cm. The aorta branches eventually into a large number of tiny capillaries that distribute the blood to the various body organs. In a capillary, the blood speed is approximately 0.08 cm/s, and the diameter is about 0.0005 cm. Treat the blood as an incompressible fluid, and determine N the approximate number of capillaries in the human body.
