What is the condition that causes positive mass balance?
When it is hot and there is no precipation
When energy balance in the body is positive body mass decreases?
This statement is incorrect. When energy balance in the body is positive (caloric intake exceeds caloric expenditure), body mass increases. To decrease body mass, energy balance must be negative (caloric intake is less than caloric expenditure).
Prolonged inactivity causes muscles to shrink in mass a condition called?
Disuse Atrophy
What is mass balance in glaciers?
Mass balance in glaciers refers to the difference between the accumulation of snow and ice (inputs) and the ablation (outputs) through melting, sublimation, or calving. A positive mass balance occurs when accumulation exceeds ablation, leading to glacier growth, while a negative mass balance indicates more ablation than accumulation, resulting in glacier retreat. Monitoring mass balance is crucial for understanding climate change impacts and predicting future glacier behavior.
When energy balance in the body is positive the body mass decreases?
When energy balance in the body is positive body mass decreases
What causes negative buoyancy?
Negative buoyancy occurs when an object displaces less than its mass of whatever its not floating in. A liter of water has a mass of 1kg, but displaces less than 10g of air, so water sinks in air.
Is a growing child is likely to exhibit negative nitrogen balance?
No, a growing child is not likely to exhibit negative nitrogen balance because they require more protein to support their growth and development. Negative nitrogen balance occurs when protein breakdown exceeds protein synthesis, leading to loss of muscle mass and other tissues. Children typically have a positive nitrogen balance due to their high protein needs for growth.
How are balance and mass related?
A balance is used to measure the mass of an object.
Mass is measured with what?
Mass is measured with a Triple Beam Balance. Yes it is.
What do you use to compare the mass of two different objects?
a triple beam balance can be used to measure mass. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- In a laboratory analytical balances are used. The type of balance depends on the mass to be measured.
Are balance and mass related?
Not directly ... it's the distribution of the mass that plays with balance.
Can mass of an object be measured by a beam balance?
A balance allows the mass of an object to be found by comparison with a standard mass. The device is in balance when the objects are of equal mass, so it does not depend on the right value of gravity, as a spring 'balance' does.
