Determining lung capacity Experiment: This is the experiment of determining lung capacity. All the students in the group measured three types of different parameters: vital capacity‚ expiratory reserve and tidal volume. “Lung volumeizing refer to physical differences in lung volume‚ while lung capacities represent different combinations of lung volumes‚ usually in relation to inhalation and exhalation.The average pair of human lungs can hold about 6 liters of air‚ but only a small amount of

Social Carrying Capacity The use of parks and protected areas by visitors creates concern about appropriate levels of use because there are limits that define how much pressure from outside forces an ecosystem can endure before it experiences degradation‚ and there are thresholds that define visitor experiences. When researchers‚ park authorities‚ and policy makers are trying to determine appropriate usage levels of specific areas‚ they frequently rely on the rationale of carrying capacity‚ including

altered vital capacity in people. Exercising for this amount was chosen to be studied because there have been many who have benefited from more exercise. The question to be answered was if this amount of exercise increased or decreased vital capacity. The hypothesis was vital capacity will increase in response to exercising for a minimum of thirty minutes a day for at least four days a week. This prediction was made because it was understood that exercise increased cardiovascular capacity. Materials

We’ve analyzed our potential suppliers for each gauge‚ taking into account their capacity‚ cost of production for each plant‚ and transportation costs (The model and our objective function can be found in the appendix.) Our goal was to allocate spinning production (at Filatoi Riuniti and six local mills) in a manner that would minimize overall costs‚ while meeting the demand and operating within the capacity constraint of each plant. Given the output of our optimization model‚ we should be outsourcing

Marybeth Brooks Physics Lab III Specific Heat Capacity Lab May 25‚ 2011 Abstract The specific heat capacity of various metals can be calculated and compared to accepted literature values. Dropping heated metal samples into a calorimeter filled with water and then measuring the change in the temperature of the system accomplished this. The metal samples were heated in a boiling water bath and were assumed to be at 100 C when they were removed. It was added to a calorimeter and stirrer

I. Introduction A buffer system is a mixture of a weak acid or a weak base and its salt (conjugate base or conjugate acid‚ respectively) that permits solutions to resist large changes in pH upon the addition of small amounts of hydrogen ions (H+) or hydroxide ions (OH-). If the same amount of the buffer is added‚ the pH may only change a fraction of a unit. Our blood is a good example of a buffered system. It is maintained under a pH of 7.4. Thus‚ buffers are important in many areas of chemistry
