Best Answer

The normal glomerular filtration rate (for humans) is 125mL/min or 180L/day.

A filtration rate of 50mL/min (or 50L/day) is greatly reduced, which means that there will be less excretion and more reabsorption of solutes, water, etc. by the kidneys.

Causes of decreased GFR include; drop in arterial blood pressure (eg. haemorrhage), sympathetic nerve stimulation and the release of renin.

What is mean by sweep rate in vibration?

"sweep rate" refers to "how fast" you go through a frequency range when performing a vibration test. For example, let's put an equipment on a shaker and see how it responds to a sine excitation having a frequency between 50 and 2000Hz. The rate at which you will vary the frequency between 50 and 2000Hz is called the "sweep rate". It can be measured in Hz/min or octave/min.


What is the normal pulsebeat?

Pulse rates vary from person to person and from country to country. The normal pulse rate of an adult at rest may range from 50 to 85 beats per minute, although the mean rate is about 70 to 72 for men and 78 to 82 for women. In infants the rate ranges from 110 to 140; the rate decreases with age, and the rate for adolescents is 80 to 90; the normal rate for the elderly may be 50 to 70. Source: Encyclopaedia Britannica
