What's the difference between actual pulse rate and calculated pulse rate?
Q. Like for eg : if someone runs a 100 m,their pulse rate after 15 secs is 39 and their actual rate at 60 seconds is 149. The calculated rate is 39 x 4 = 156.Why is the actual and calculated rate different?. The calculated rate is what is assumed to happen but why is the actual rate of the pulse different,i kinda get it but cannot explain,help!

A. Well the calculated pulse is not accurate as you have only measured it fo 15 seconds. then multiplied it by four. Now as pulse is measured in BPM ( Beats Per Minute) The accurate way is to actually time it for a minute and you will have an accurate answer.

What does data rate means in digital camera video recording?
Q. My canon sx100 IS digital camera has two options for video recording. 1. Normal mode 2. LP mode LP mode enables to record twice as much video then normal mode. I recorded on both mode and found following information when I checked the video file properties. Normal mode: Data Rate 14884kbps LP mode: Data Rate 7384kbps Does lower data rate means poor quality video then higher data rate?
Asked by MD R - Sun Apr 5 19:52:44 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Data rate (also bitrate) is the rate of recording... basically, how much data is used to represent your video. So yeah, if you drop to half the amount of information, something has to suffer. There are points beyond which you need a trained eye to tell the difference... consumer tape records at 25Mb/s, some higher end pro formats go to 50Mb/s or even 100Mb/s, but much of that would be lost on the average viewer. However, when you have different settings on your camcoder or still camera with video features, you better believe you'll see a difference. Sometimes the lower video modes also go to a lower resolution, other times, not so much. Consider your Canon SX100. Your best video mode is recording at 640x480 resolution at 30… [cont.]

What is the success rate and recurrence rate for luxating patella surgery?
Q. My (almost) 1 year old Staffordshire Terrier mix, Rocky, was diagnosed today with a luxating patella. His veterinarian says he will need the surgery ASAP. I have read that in larger dogs there is a high risk of recurrence. He is 58 pounds. What is the success rate for the surgery in larger dogs and the recurrence rate?

A. I was told the success rate is high - by more than one "qualified surgeon". And I guess my golden retrievers legs were...successfully treated. For a short period of time. A year later he "injured himself" again. So I did some research. Fairly simple procedure. Success depends on the dog, the surgeon, and the dogs lifestyle. "Big", active dogs that are prone to bone and joint problems... potential problems. My dog was a LARGE (not fat) Golden Retriever that just couldn't sit still to heal. The surgeon, I guess, was competent but post surgery care and handling - to me - left a lot to be desired.

Question about the real interest rate and the expected rate of return?
Q. Hello, I just read in my macroeconomics book that you should invest if the real interest rate is lower than the expected rate of return. I don't understand why we don't have to compare the nominal interest rate and the expected rate of return. Because that is how much we have to pay our lender back. For example if: Real Interest Rate=6% Nominal Interest Rate=10% Expected Rate Of Return=8% We should undertake the investment here but aren't we losing money ? Thank You.
Asked by ParaNoir - Tue Dec 2 20:05:06 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Because the nominal does not account for inflation. Real interest rate is nominal interest rate minus inflation rate. Expected return is a vital measure of performance. Your expected return must be higher than real interest rate or you lose money. Your missing the cost of capital in your thinking.

The baby was kept in the hospital NICU for quite a awhile, but did well. She is now 2.5 years old and has some problems (needs glasses, has some hearing loss and is prone to getting chest infections) but otherwise is a healthy and happy child. I'm sorry that your friend has had to go through this, but know that there is every possibility that her child will not only survive but grow up just fine! Stay positive, and if you pray, pray...

A. A rate is something like 50 miles per hour. Here it expresses the speed of a car -every hour the car moves 50 miles. A unit rate, also known as unitary rate is used to change units. It is called a unit rate for 2 reasons: 1. we are multiplying by "1" and, 2. the expression contains units. The unitary rate for km/miles is 1.0 km/ 0.62 miles = 1. See, the numerator is 1.0 km; the denominator is 0.62 miles. They represent the same distance and so if we divide them we get a logical value of 1. So if we multiply 50 miles/hour by this we don't actually change the answer because we are multiplying by 1 and we all know that multiplying by 1 does not change the answer. However the units get cancelled. Here it is (50 miles / hour ) * (1km/0.62 [cont.]

You should consult display [monitor] and video card manuals before changing the settings to determine the supported refresh rates.

Q. I have to change about 20.000 euros in british pounds, as deposit for the house I want to buy. I want to find the best possible rate. Forget M&S and travel Agency (It would cost me about 500 pounds on the change rate). I have been to my bank HSBC and they say they only change from Pounds to Euro and not the opposite. A bank transfer was at the moment the cheapest solution because you pay a commision but then you have the official rate. Could anybody suggest the best way to do it? If you need more details feel free to ask. Thanks

A. Call Currencies Direct and ask them. I am an estate agent in the Costa Blanca and my clients often use them. Or alternatively check out other currency companies on the web and ask them how much they charge. Good luck with your purchase.

Would the rate of maple sap retrieved from the trees be greater during the day or night? Why?
Q. Would the rate of maple sap retrieved from the trees be greater during the day or night? Why? I think it could possibly have to do something with photosynthesis.

A. The flow rate is greatest in the day due to transpiration and cellular respiration. In transpiration water is drawn up through a tree by evaporation from the leaves. This in turn pulls water up the xylem via capillary action. This water movement creates most of the pressure to drive sap flow. This is why sap flow is greatest at the warmest part of the day when most water is evaporating from the tree. Another factor is the fact that in spring the night temperatures can drop below freezing. This fluctuation in day to night temperatures helps drives the flow. After the night cools the sap contracts and draws water from the soil. Cellular respiration also plays a role in generating internal pressure by releasing CO2 to the sap flow. The… [cont.]

What interest rate should I expect on a new car?
Q. Is there any way to get an idea of what my interest rate would be on a new car? I would like to buy a new Nissan Versa within the next couple of months. The car costs around $16,000, I'm planning to put $4000 down, and I have a good credit score of 720. Thanks!

A. Tier 1+ (best rate) requires 730... So you have Tier 1 credit which should be good enough for 5.9% at Capital One.

A. Interest rate is the rate that quoted, say for example 6%. The APR or Annual Percentage Rate is the true rate that you are paying. Annual percentage rate takes into account any fees and is a true measure of the amount of interest you are paying annually. It's kind of hard to explain without giving you a lesson in the principles of time value of money, with takes into account compound interest which is how a mortgage is calculated. Most people think that interest is simply for example multiplying a 100,000 mortgage by 6%, and that the amount of interest you would pay in one year. In most cases interest is calculated on a daily basis, which means you take that 6% and divide it by 365 and you get your daily interest rate. When you… [cont.]
