Answer

$7200\frac{L}{day},7630\frac{Kg}{day}$

Work Step by Step

We can find the volume of the blood pumped in one day as $\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}=(5.00 \frac{L}{min})(60\frac{min}{h})(24\frac{h}{day})=7200\frac{L}{day}$ Now we can find the mass of the blood pumped in one day as $\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t}=\rho(\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t})$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\frac{\Delta m}{\Delta t}=(1060\frac{Kg}{m^3})(7200L)(\frac{m^3}{10^3L})=7630\frac{Kg}{day}$
