Jacks on Heart Rate and Blood Pressure I. Introduction It is known that exercise effects how quickly a heart beats and thus how much pressure is needed to pump a person’s blood through their veins. There have been several studies over the years that have tested this. An experiment recoded by Nicolas Tordi, Laurent Mourot, Eglantine Colin, and Jaques Regnard, compared several factors between interval exercise and constant exercise. Two of the factors they monitored were heart rate and blood…
Discount Rates, and Reserve Requirements. From these three monetary policies, the Federal Reserve uses the Open Market Operations the most. Since the Federal Reserve is unable to control inflation or unemployment directly, it buys and sells securities in the open market where various primary securities dealers compete. The transactions of the securities in the open market influence the volume of reserves in the banking system. By manipulating the volume of the reserves affects the interest…
My science fair project involves soda bubbles and temperature. I chose this project because I’m interested in the viscosity(a chemical in soda) that is part of a soda/liquid, and how the viscosity is affected by the temperature of the liquid. I am also interested in bubbles specifically their length of time, so it would be interesting to see how the length of time is affected by temperature. The question that I am going to answer is, how does the temperature of soda affect the length of time of…
What to Do if You Win the Powerball Lottery If you are living in one of the 44 states that have the Powerball Lottery (or Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands), there is a good chance that you have bought at least one Powerball ticket. You may have also been buying them for friends and family that are not living in one of those states. Why all the interest in Powerball right now? Well, for the benefit of those few people who may have been living in a cave, the lottery is…
The Fed uses open market operations, reserve requirements, and discount rates to gain control of the economy. The Fed uses tools such as reserve requirements to not only keep track of the real level of reserves and provide bank reserves with more security and convenience, but they use it to alter the ability to create loans…
homeless people have extremely high mortality rate. According to Plumb, “In Philadelphia homeless people who had an age-adjusted mortality rate 3.5 times higher than the general population and in New York city had a rate of 2 to 3 times higher.”. “Among homeless men, using injectable drugs beforehand, incarceration and chronic homelessness is what adds up to death”. In addition, a study showed mortality rates among men using shelters in Toronto showed that the rates were higher than those…
affected the acceleration. Secondly, the affect of friction. The presence of friction affected the motion of the object as it went down the ramp. Lastly, the imperfections of the ramp. The wear of the ramp could have caused the object to reduce its rate of acceleration. Conclusions…
and set-point targeting schemes. This mode guarantees the patient will receive a minimum minute volume based the set respiratory rate and tidal volume. Thus, the set breathing rate is the maximum number of mandatory breaths a patient can receive (Chatburn, Khatib, Mireles-Cabodevila, 2014). Furthermore, if the patient is able to breath spontaneously above the set rate and tidal volume, fewer mandatory breaths are delivered by the machine. The mandatory breaths are delivered will be machine…
is the rate of dissolving sugar affected by changing the temperature of the water, changing the rate of stirring, and changing the size of the crystal?” The independent variable of each laboratory experiment is different, however they are all being changed to get consistent and effective results for one dependent variable. The three independent variables are the temperature of water, rate of stirring and size of the crystal and the dependent variable of the all the experiments is the rate of…
The reaction energy path controls the speed of the reaction. The molecules follow the path of least resistance, but this path may still require a lot of energy. The activation energy for the path could be high, making the reaction proceed at a slow rate. A reaction pathway can be changed by adding nonreacting compounds to the reaction mixture. These molecules can sometimes alter the pathway so the energy needed for reaction is…
