5.2.3 Implementing the ACSM’S Metabolic Equations We calculate the factional grade in a similar fashion to how we calculate distance. The Location class method getAltitude() returns the altitude if available, in meters above the WGS 84 reference ellipsoid[4]. Whenever we receive a location update, we get the difference between the current and last known altitude, and use a simple rise/run calculation to get our fractional gradient, which we use for estimating the users VO2. Note that we do not…
Briefly explain why it is important to learn the hardy-weinberg equation and what the equation allows us to study in terms of population genetics -It is important to learn it because it provides us with mathematical evidence that evolution will not occur under certain circumstances such as migration or mutation. Comparing populations to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium helps us better understand the mechanisms of evolution. With this equation, we can determine if a population is evolving. Under the…
Quasiclassical Elienberger equations [129] for the green functions g(k , r, and order parameter , is a powerful tool to deal with inhomogeneous superconductors [130]. These functions depend on the so called, ‘Matsubara frequency’, , coordinate r, and wave vector k on the fermi surface. The dependence of green functions and order parameters on the wave vector k, makes them sensitive to the shape of fermi surface. This makes solution of Elienberger equations complicated in the system of complex…
Dulhunty (1977) also found that the extracellular potassium and chloride concentrations could affect the membrane potential in such a way that could be modelled by the GHK equation, depending on the concentration of chloride intracellularly. These results also support the hypothesis and results that the GHK equation, which accounts for the permeability and concentration of several ions across the membrane, may provide a good model for predicting the membrane potential…
and equation 3.2 and 3.4 become: ∇.J=∇.(σE)=0 (3.6) Based on equation 3.6, the field distribution is depended on conductivity variation inside the material [1, 45, 46]. Furthermore, according to equations 3.5 and 3.6, space charge can be accumulated in insulation material in steady state condition due to the variation of permittivity to conductivity. As a result, by combining equation…
The webinar, The Team Equation: Managing Teams that Deliver, had a very interesting viewpoint on how to make teams successful and stick together. There are a few things I have learned from this webinar. One thing I have learned comes from the well-known quote “Two heads are better than one.” I have always thought that this just meant two heads, no matter what two heads they were, are always better than one. However they make a very good point in this webinar that the two heads should be…
root is a complex number? Answer: If the equation is 7th degree then it has 7 roots. Those roots can be complex or real. Complex roots always come in pairs, so if it has one, then it has 2, the other one being the conjugate of the first one. This in other words, if one complex root is a + bi, then the other complex root is a – bi. If at least one root were complex, then we would have a minimum of 2 complex roots with a maximum of 5 real roots. The equation can have at most 6 complex roots (3…
derive the Quadratic Formula by completing the square, it was important to verify that the quadratic equation was in standard form which is ax? + bx + c = 0. By using this correct form, I prevented myself from using the wrong values for a,b, or c which could result in an incorrect solution. I began by rewriting the equation by subtracting c to the other side which isolated ax? + bx. I divided the equation by a because it was multiplied on the squared term. In addition, I took the half of the…
Chemical kinetics are governed by the mathematics of systems of differential equations (Thermodynamics and Kinetics). This means that the rate of any chemical reaction is determined by the type, and amount, of reactants present. Note the rate of a reaction is how fast it occurs. Furthermore, such rate equations can either be distinctively linear or non-linear when graphed. Non-linear equations are supposedly more complex as they generally react to small changes within its parameters…
A rate law is an equation used to determine how much the concentrations of solutions will change as times goes on. In this experiment, the rate changed based on the five degree Celsius temperature change and concentration change in three different reactions. In this lab,…
