Sep 10, 2015. 1.59. The equation is C= #pi# D. Plug in what you know. 5= #pi# D. You want to manipulate the equation by dividing pi from 5. So it will look like this, 5/#pi# and then solve in your calculator.


The radius of a circle is 6.5. What is the diameter, circumference, and area?
The diameter of the circle measures 13. The formula for circumference of a circle is dÏ, where d is diameter and Ï is pi. Now that we know the length of the diameter, we can find the circumference, or distance around the circle. The circumference measures 13Ï (exact value) or 40.84 (rounded to the nearest hundredth).


-
Circumference is equal to 2 times pi (3.1416) times one half of the diameter (the radius). So, if the diameter is 2 cm, then the circumference would be the product of (2) timâ¦es (3.1416) times (1), or 6.2832 cm.   Circumference is equal to diameter times Pi. c = Pi * d diameter times pi.

Measuring the Mass of a Mars-size Exoplanet
Measuring the mass of such a small planet based on its gravity was another level entirely, but astronomers have done just that for an exoplanet fifty percent the size of Earth. Researchers using NASA's Kepler mission data have measured the mass of a Mars-size exoplanet that is about one tenth the mass of Earth. Called Kepler-138b, it is the first exoplanet smaller than Earth to have both its mass and size measured. This significantly extends the range of planets with measured densities. 1  The artistic concept shows the planetary system harboring Kepler-138b, the first exoplanet smaller than Earth with both a mass and size measurement. The sizes of the planets relative to the star have been exaggerated.

How Big is Mars? | Size of Planet Mars
Despite appearances, Mars is not a sphere. Because the planet rotates on its axis (every 24.6 hours), it bulges at the equator (as do Earth and other planets). At its equator, Mars has a diameter of 4,222 miles (6,794 km), but from pole to pole, the diameter is 4,196 miles (6,752 km). Marsâ radius is, of course, half of planetâs diameter. The circumference of Mars around the equator is about 13,300 miles (21,343 km), but from pole-to-pole Mars is only 13,200 miles (21,244 km) around.

Accounting Methods: Cash Vs. Accrual
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are standards and conventions used in the U.S. to provide uniformity in accounting and financial statements. GAAP approves the accrual, not the cash basis, method of accounting.


Cash basis vs. accrual basis accounting
Cash basis vs. accrual basis accounting. The cash basis and accrual basis of accounting are two different methods used to record accounting transactions. The core underlying difference between the two methods is in the timing of transaction recordation. When aggregated over time, the results of the two methods are approximately the same. A brief description of each method follows: 1  Cash basis. 2  Revenue is recorded when cash is received from customers, and expenses are recorded when cash is paid to suppliers and employees. 3  Accrual basis.


-
The main difference between accrual and cash basis accounting is the timing of when revenue and expenses are recognized. The cash method is most used by small businesses and for personal finances.


How does accrual accounting differ from cash basis accounting?
On the other hand, the accrual method accounts for revenue when it is earned and expenses goods and services when they are incurred. The revenue is recorded even if cash has not been recieved or if expenses have been incurred but no cash has been paid. Accrual accounting is the most common method used by businesses. For example: Let's say you own a business that sells machinery. If you sell $5,000 worth of machinery, under the cash method, that amount is not recorded in the books until the customer hands you the money or you receive the check.


Understanding Cash vs Accrual Accounting Methods
There are two primary accounting methods used by businesses in recording and reporting financial transactions: cash-basis accounting and accrual-basis accounting. The difference between the two determines when income and expenses are recorded, which can have an effect on profit and loss, as well as income taxes.


Accounting Methods: Cash Vs. Accrual
Timing. The basic difference between cash and accrual methods of accounting is related to timing of revenues and expenses. Cash basis recognizes revenues when money comes in and recognizes expenses when money is paid out. Cash basis doesn&#039;t recognize accounts receivable or payable.


Accounting Methods: Cash Vs. Accrual
Accounting Methods: Cash Vs. Accounting methodology can make a difference in understanding financial statements. Accounting has two methodologies to recognize income and expenses: cash and accrual basis. Each method has its merits, benefits and disadvantages.


Understanding Cash vs Accrual Accounting Methods
Most small businesses and individuals operate on a cash basis and prepare their income taxes using this method. Accrual basis â Under the accrual method of accounting, rather than recording revenues and expenses when cash changes hands, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred.


Understanding Cash vs Accrual Accounting Methods
Under the cash basis of accounting method, you would recognize the revenue for this sale on October 29, when the cash is received. Under the accrual basis method, you would recognize the revenue for this sale on October 15, when you issued the invoice.


Understanding Cash vs Accrual Accounting Methods
Cash basis â Under the cash basis of accounting, transactions are recorded when cash is received or paid. In other words, revenue is recorded when cash payment is received for the sale of products or services, and expenses are recorded when cash is paid to vendors for purchases of products or services.

Baby, Pregnancy, and Parenting Information
Share. Dehydration isnât a big worry for most pregnant women, but for some women, it can become quite dangerous. Dehydration for anyone can cause weakness and sickness, but during pregnancy, it can also cause harm to your unborn baby or a spontaneous miscarriage. Most of the time, dehydration during pregnancy occurs in the first trimester while the mother-to-be is dealing with morning sickness.

If you experience minor cramping during pregnancy, there are a couple of things you can do for prevention and self-care: 1  Try to sit, lie down or change positions. 2  Soak in a warm bath. 3  Try doing relaxation exercises. 4  Place a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel on the ache. 5  Make sure you get plenty of fluids.


Dehydration during Pregnancy
If you become dehydrated during your pregnancy, you are putting both your childâs and your own health at risk. While youâre pregnant, keep track of the fluids you consume and be sure to heed any warning signs of dehydration immediately.


Dehydration during Pregnancy
However, when youâre pregnant, it can be even easier for you to become dehydrated and miss the symptoms altogether. Dehydration is more common in pregnancy. For one thing, your blood volume when you become pregnant drastically increases to provide your baby with nutrients. When blood volume is high, itâs more difficult for your body to retain fluids, so you become dehydrated quicker. You are also at a higher risk for dehydration during your pregnancy because you have a greater tendency for nausea and vomiting.


Cramping During Pregnancy
Causes of cramping during pregnancy. Cramping typically occurs when the uterus expands, causing the ligaments and muscles that support it to stretch. It may be more noticeable when you sneeze, cough, or change positions. During the second trimester, a common cause of cramping is round ligament pain. The round ligament is a muscle that supports the uterus, and when it stretches, you may feel a sharp, stabbing pain, or a dull ache in your lower abdomen.


Are You Drinking Enough Water?
Headaches. Any change that alters the body's natural balance, such as dehydration, creates stress and that can trigger a headache. In fact, a headache is your body's alarm system.


Dehydration during Pregnancy
If you become dehydrated during the first trimester of your pregnancy, your body will not produce enough amniotic fluid for your baby, and he or she might end up resting directly on the wall of your uterus. This will hinder your babyâs development and could easily cause limb deformities.


Baby, Pregnancy, and Parenting Information
It is just as important to drink your eight glasses of water a day while pregnant as it is when you are not pregnant. Not only do you need to do it for your health, but you must do it for the health of your unborn baby as well.


Troubleshooting Anti-Lock Brakes
The computer then directs a hydraulic valve to release some brake fluid pressure to the wheel to let it rotate again. This process repeats many times per second until the vehicle stops or you lift your foot off the brake pedal. The ABS computer does a power-on self test every time you cycle the ignition. If it finds it's lacking data, or a hydraulic pump or valve isn't responding, it illuminates the ABS warning light on the dash. ABS relies on a properly operating conventional brake system.

ABS Brakes and the Facts
Anti-lock Brake Systems (ABS) operate as follows: 1  When the brakes are applied, fluid is forced from the brake master cylinder outlet ports to the HCU inlet ports. This pressure is transmitted through four normally open solenoid valves contained inside the HCU, then through the outlet ports of the HCU to each wheel.


What are ABS and EBD, and how do they work?
Concept of ABS. The ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) monitors the speed of each wheel to detect locking. When it detects sudden braking, it will release braking pressure for a moment and then provide optimum braking pressure to each wheel. By repeating this process in a short period of time, it enhances steering control during sudden stops.


ABS Brakes and the Facts
Anti-lock Brake Systems (ABS) operate as follows: 1  When the brakes are applied, fluid is forced from the brake master cylinder outlet ports to the HCU inlet ports. 2  The primary (rear) circuit of the brake master cylinder feeds the front brakes. 3  The secondary (front) circuit of the brake master cylinder feeds the rear brakes.


Mercedes Benz Brake System ABS
abs dashboard light. The ABS warning light/anti skid brake light will come on or start flashing when there is a malfunction with the ABS brakes. The ABS control module continuously performs diagnostic self-checks. If it finds a problem, it will shut down the system.


ABS Brakes and the Facts
During normal braking, the ABS and non-ABS brake pedal feel will be the same. During ABS operation, a pulsation can be felt in the brake pedal, accompanied by a fall and then rise in brake pedal height and a clicking sound. Vehicles with ABS are equipped with a pedal-actuated, dual-brake system.


How Anti-Lock Brakes Work
How Anti-Lock Brakes Work. An anti-lock brake system (ABS) is a braking system that is made to allow a vehicle to maintain traction with the road when braking. Braking is controlled by driver input via the brake pedal, and older braking systems response to a driver braking suddenly or with intense pressure was sometimes to lock up or skid.


Troubleshooting Anti-Lock Brakes
First, be sure it really is the ABS light and not the light that indicates an issue with your normal service brakes. If you do have a conventional brake issue, like low pedal or grinding noises, this is the wrong Saturday Mechanic for you.

Rhinoplasty
The complete physical examination of the rhinoplasty patient determines if he or she is physically fit to undergo and tolerate the physiologic stresses of nose surgery. The examination comprehends every existing physical problem, and a consultation with an anaesthesiologist, if warranted by the patient's medical data.


rhinoplasty
The strip of skin separating the nostrils is called the columella. Surgical approaches to nasal reconstruction are varied. Internal rhinoplasty involves making all incisions inside the nasal cavity. The external or open technique involves a skin incision across the base of the nasal columella.


Rhinoplasty
Photograph A. â Open rhinoplasty: At rhinoplasty's end, after the plastic surgeon has sutured (closed) the incisions, the corrected (new) nose will be dressed, taped, and splinted immobile to permit the uninterrupted healing of the surgical incisions.


Overview
Locations of the nasal bone and cartilage. Your nose is supported by bone (at the back and bridge) and by cartilage (in the front). Rhinoplasty (RIE-no-plas-tee) is surgery that changes the shape of the nose. The motivation for rhinoplasty may be to change the appearance of the nose, improve breathing or both. The upper portion of the structure of the nose is bone, and the lower portion is cartilage. Rhinoplasty can modify bone, cartilage, skin or all three.


Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty techniques were carried out in ancient India by the ayurvedic physician Sushruta (c. 800 BC), who described reconstruction of the nose in the Sushruta samhita (c. 500 BC), his medicoâsurgical compendium.


Rhinoplasty
Treatments for the plastic repair of a broken nose are first mentioned in the Edwin Smith Papyrus, a transcription of an Ancient Egyptian medical text, the oldest known surgical treatise, dated to the Old Kingdom from 3000 to 2500 BC.


rhinoplasty
Nasal anatomy and proportions are quite varied and the final look of any rhinoplasty operation is the result of the patient's anatomy, as well as of the surgeon's skill. The quality of the skin plays a major role in the outcome of rhinoplasty. Patients with extremely thick skin may not see a definite change in the underlying bone structure after surgery. On the other hand, thin skin provides almost no cushion to hide the most minor of bone irregularities or imperfections.


Rhinoplasty
In plastic surgical praxis, the term primary rhinoplasty denotes an initial (first-time) reconstructive, functional, or aesthetic corrective procedure. The term secondary rhinoplasty denotes the revision of a failed rhinoplasty, an occurrence in 5â20 per cent of rhinoplasty operations, hence a revision rhinoplasty.


rhinoplasty
A cosmetic change in the shape of the nose will change a person's appearance, but it will not change self-image. A person who expects a different lifestyle after rhinoplasty is likely to be disappointed.


rhinoplasty
The term rhinoplasty means nose molding or nose forming.. It refers to a procedure in plastic surgery in which the structure of the nose is changed.

Hypothyroidism is characterized by a decrease in oxygen and substrate utilization by all the major organ systems of the body. As a result, the demands for cardiac output decrease; in addition, hypothyroidism directly alters cardiac function through changes in myocyte-specific gene expression [1]. This topic will review the cardiovascular manifestations of overt hypothyroidism.


Heart Disease
In some patients with pre-existing heart disease, hypothyroidism may be associated with decreased cardiac function, producing a mild exacerbation or deterioration in the underlying heart condition, occasionally leading to shortness of breath, or rarely, congestive heart failure Risk for ischemic heart disease and all-cause mortality in subclinical ...


Heart Disease
Hypothyroidism and your heart. In modest cases of hypothyroidism, the heart rate may be slowed, although heart function is generally normal. With more significant and prolonged deficiency of thyroid hormone, cardiac function may become abnormal. In persons who have normal heart function and no history of heart disease to begin with, these mild changes in heart function associated with hypothyroidism are usually imperceptible.


The Heart and the Thyroid Gland
These drugs are also useful to decrease other symptoms of hyperthyroidism such as finger tremor and anxiety. Heart failure is usually treated in the standard way with heart medications to improve heart function such as digoxin and drugs to increase excretion of water by the kidneys, diuretics, eg. furosemide.


How Does Thyroid Disease Affect the Heart?
Types of Thyroid Disease. Thyroid disease affects the heart either by producing too little thyroid hormone (a condition called hypothyroidism), or too much thyroid hormone (called hyperthyroidism). Both types of thyroid disorders are common, and both can have a significant effect on the heart.


Metoprolol
The major cardiovascular changes that occur in hypothyroidism include a decrease in cardiac output and cardiac contractility, a reduction in heart rate, and an increase in peripheral vascular resistance (figure 1) [2,3].


Hyperthyroidism in Cats
Your cat's heart rate and blood pressure may also be checked. If thyroid disease is suspected, your veterinarian will likely order a blood-chemistry panel as well as a thyroid-hormone level. Most cats with hyperthyroidism will have elevated levels of the thyroid hormone T4 in their bloodstream.


How Does Thyroid Disease Affect the Heart?
Hyperthyroidism and the Heart. Hyperthyroidism is caused by the overproduction of thyroid hormone. When there is too much thyroid hormone, the heart muscle is whipped like a horse, and for a person with heart disease, it's like whipping a tired horse.

Sectional Hydroponic Microgreens Starter Kit
This kit is a hydroponic kit, which is soil free and minimal mess. Microgreens can be grown on any kitchen countertop, indoors or out. The seeds in this kit can also be grown in soil, but all the seeds chosen for this kit do very well hydroponically.


Winter Markets Keep the Cash Flowing
For instance, a nursery owner in Minnesota is setting up a room to do 36 10Ã20 trays indoors under lights, and is planning to provide microgreens to his customers from November to May. He wants to know what kind of yield to project from each 10 x 20 tray, and the pricing he should set.


Mighty Microgreens Versus Super Sprouts
Sprouts and microgreens are often lumped into one food category. However, the difference between the two is determined by whether or not the seed is planted in soil and exactly how much of the plant is being consumed. Microgreens are cut off at soil level and are often 1-3 inches in length.


Microgreen Garden
Most commercially grown microgreens are cultivated to true leaf stage with twice the size and weight as seed leaf stage because market competition dictates high yield harvests. You, however, dwell outside that marketplace. You can grow your microgreens only to the more succulent seed leaf stage, in which case seedling mixes provide ample nourishment. Growth for ten days or fewer is simply too short a time to fully utilize fertile soil. Beyond ten days, potting soil is recommended.


Microgreen
Microgreens have three basic parts: a central stem, cotyledon leaf or leaves, and typically the first pair of very young true leaves. They vary in size depending upon the specific variety grown, with the typical size being 1 to 1.5 in (25 to 38 mm) in total length.


What are Microgreens, and Why Should You Care?
But what exactly are microgreens, other than the obvious fact that they are very small in size? Microgreens are essentially seedlings of edible vegetables and herbs, and while theyâre hugely popular now, seemingly available in every cafÃ© and restaurant, microgreens have actually been incorporated into the dishes of many chefs since the â80s.


Microgreens enter mainstream retail market
Three varieties of Flowerdale Farm microgreens are now available through Victorian Coles supermarkets: coriander, red radish and chives. Flowerdale have specifically developed a patented living top seal punnet for the Australian retail market.


-
What are MicroGreens? MicroGreens are the edible young seedlings of immature plants, harvested at 7-14 days after germination. Typically ranging in size from 1-3 inches tall, MicroGreens are older than sprouts and much younger than petite or baby greens. MicroGreens are specifically selected for their unique color and flavor. MicroGreens are a stunning visual and nutritional addition to any dish.


Microgreen Garden
This chapter is about soil, and this book is as much about growing microgreens as about living in harmony with Mother Earth. Fortunately for both us and for farm animals, microgreens do not need much fertilizer regardless of source, so the meager dosage of nutrients inherent in simple soil is both sufficient and dirt cheap.

The Right to Keep and Bear Arms: A Right to Self-Defense Against Criminals and Despots
The right to keep and bear arms is as old as this country. It was first guaranteed by state constitutions, then by the Second Amendment, and subsequently reaffirmed by the Fourteenth Amendment. It is as sacred as trial by jury and freedom of speech and press. It is a part of our nation's heritage.

The Second Amendment & the Right to Bear Arms
As part of the ruling, the court said the right of each individual to bear arms was not granted under the Constitution. Ten years later, the court affirmed the ruling in Presser v. Illinois when it said that the Second Amendment only limited the federal government from prohibiting gun ownership, not the states.


United States Bill of Rights

He started pondering over ways to protect buildings, ships and people from lightning. This effort on his part culminated in the invention of the lightning rod.

One end of the rod would point high up into the sky; the other end would be attached to a cable.

What Is the Function of the Skeleton?
A: The human skeleton protects the inner organs, supports the body's frame, stores the body's chemicals and minerals, facilitates blood transportation and formation and makes movement possible. The skeleton is made up of more than 200 connected bones.


What Is the Function of the Skeleton?
According to InnerBody, each bone in the human skeleton contains blood vessels and bone marrow made of fat cells, connective tissue cells and nerve cells that help transport blood throughout the body. The skeleton also helps to hold internal organs in place.


What Does the Skeleton Do?
The skeleton holds all vital organs in place when the body is in movement, while the vertebral column holds the body itself in an upright position.The skeleton provides protection for the vital organs in the human body, including the brain and vital organs in the chest.

What Does the Skeleton Do?
Quick Answer. The skeletal system performs numerous vital functions, including body support, movement, protection, calcium storage, blood cell production and endocrine regulation. These functions are essential to every other function of the human body, contradicting the common myth that the skeleton is only structural.


What Does the Skeleton Do?
The most important function of the skeleton is the production of blood cells. Some of the bones in the human body are filled with bone marrow, a substance that produces red and white blood cells. The blood cells produced by the bone marrow are crucial because red blood cells provide oxygen to the body, and white blood cells are essential for fighting infection and maintaining the immune system.


Veins, lymphatics, swollen ankles, phlebitis and venous thrombosis
The job of lymphatics. A small amount of blood (lymph) leaks out of blood vessels and returns to the circulation via the lymphatics. This is a network of tiny vessels which drain from the whole body via lymph nodes to the thoracic duct and eventually back into the main vein of the body - the superior vena cava.


Vasculitis and Vasculopathy in Rheumatic Diseases
Complete blockage is called occlusion; it causes the vessel wall to swell and makes things stick to the wall -- so a clot forms. When vasculitis interferes with circulation in any part of the body, it causes local tenderness and pain. If the blood vessels are close to the skin, characteristic rashes occur.


Lupus, Vasculitis and Blocked Blood Vessels
Vasculitis means inflammation of the blood vessels. (Vasc refers to blood vessels and itis means inflamation). Vasculitis is a problem that can arise independently of other illnesses, or it may co-exist with lupus or other autoimmune diseases.


Veins, lymphatics, swollen ankles, phlebitis and venous thrombosis
Ankles can be swollen because of increased pressure in the veins or lymphatics. You can tell the difference between the two because blockage of the veins causes pitting oedema (i.e. if you press the skin with your thumb for a few seconds it leaves a clear imprint) whereas lymphoedema does not.

Bowel Obstruction
In a bowel obstruction (intestinal obstruction), a blockage prevents the contents of the intestines from passing normally through the digestive tract. The problem causing the blockage can be inside or outside the intestine. Inside the intestine, a tumor or swelling can fill and block the inside passageway of the intestine. Outside the intestine, it is possible for an adjacent organ or area of tissue to pinch, compress or twist a segment of bowel. A bowel obstruction can occur in the small bowel (small intestine) or large bowel (large intestine or colon). Also, a bowel obstruction can be total or partial, depending on whether any intestinal contents can pass through the obstructed area. To continue reading this article, you must login.


Approach Considerations
Initial emergency department (ED) treatment consists of aggressive fluid resuscitation, bowel decompression, administration of analgesia and antiemetic as indicated clinically, early surgical consultation, and administration of antibiotics.
