Bioelectrical impedance is one method to determine body composition?

True.


What is dynamic impedance?

The impedance of a circuit having an inductance and a capacitance in parallel at the frequency at which this impedance has a maximum value. Also known as rejector impedance.


What is Miller's Theorem?

Milller's Theorem is used to simplify a circuit for circuit analysis. Instead of one impedance, which connectes two non-grounded nodes, Miller's Theorem allows this impedance to be broken down into two parallel impedances. One impedance can be seen as Z/(1-A) and the other impedance can be simplified to Z/(1-(1/A)). In this case, Z was the value of the original impedance, and A is the gain of the amplifier being analyzed.


Which is better high input impedance or low input impedance and why?

That depends on the output impedance. In electronic we use voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance. An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance. An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.


How to distinguish between characteristic impedance and input impedance?

The characteristic impedance or surge impedance belongs to uniform transmission lines.In electronic gears we use voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance.An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance.An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.

What is the name of the procedure that conducts a low level electric current throughout the body to measure the percentage of body fat?

Bioelectrical impedance monitoring.Bear in mind that this is not considered a very accurate method. To improve the result, avoid eating and drinking for 4 hours before testing; don't exercise heavily within 12 hours; and no alcohol or coffee within 48 hours.See also:Eating healthy to have a healthy weight

Why do not you use impedance in DC circuit?

Actually, its a matter of terminology... Impedance can be used in a DC circuit. We just call it resistance, however, transient analysis would imply a different notation. To be clear, impedance is normally used in AC circuits, and it is the electrical opposition to AC, taking into account not only voltage, but phase angle. In a DC circuit, impedance and resistance are the same thing, simply with a phase angle of zero.

To get all the audio voltage from a source to a target without loss you need voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is at least ten times higher then the output impedance.An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance.An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.
