Compute the work done moving the 6.2 l of blood completely through the body, assuming the blood pressure always takes its average value. hint: when the heart contracts, it applies force to the blood. pressure is just force/area so we can write work = (pressure) (area) (distance). but (area) (distance) is just the blood volume passing through the heart.
