ear pulse oximeter
To measure the activity of a sample, a scintillation counter can be used. This instrument detects and quantifies ionizing radiation emitted by radioactive samples, converting the energy from the radiation into measurable light pulses. The number of pulses is proportional to the activity of the sample, allowing for accurate assessment of its radioactivity levels. Other instruments like Geiger-Muller counters and ionization chambers can also be utilized for similar measurements.
In very simple terms, the instrument generates pulses that pass through an electronic 'gate' within the instrument to be counted. The duration for which the gate is open is determined by the voltage applied to the instrument; the greater the voltage, the longer the gate stays open, and the greater the number of pulses that can pass through. The number of pulses, therefore, is proportional to the voltage being measured. By measuring the number of pulses that have passed through the gate, the measured voltage can be displayed digitally.To measure current, the same principle applies, except that the current is passed through a resistor, and the voltage drop caused by that current is applied to the gate. Since this voltage is proportional to the current, the number of counted pulses will indicate the current being measured.
The digital meters measure frequency by counting the number of input pulses which occur in short period of time called gating period
The instrument provides a tubular cavity which tunes the air pulses created by the users lips.
A laser measures distances by sending out pulses, and measuring the time it takes for these pulses to bounce back. Lasers are efficient and great measurement tools.
Pulses swell when kept in water because they absorb the water through a process called osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from an area of high concentration (outside the pulse) to an area of low concentration (inside the pulse), causing it to swell as the water enters its structure.
Pulse Rate
Pulses, dried lentils, peas or beans
The pulses on the fast laser will enable us measure the reaction time on the chemical reaction.
there is the time it takes the source NICto place voltage pulses on the wire and the time it takes the receiving NIC to interpret these pulses. This is sometimes called NIC delay
Scientists use sound waves to measure the depth of the ocean through a method called sonar. By sending sound pulses from a ship to the ocean floor and measuring the time it takes for the sound waves to bounce back, scientists can calculate the depth of the ocean at that location.
In case of TV broad casting, the Video Signal is not transmitted alone, but it accompanied by a number of other signals or pulses, which help the exact reproduction of the picture at the receiving end. These pulses include Blanking Pulses, Synchronizing pulses and Equalizing pulses. A combination of Picture signal and other Controlling signal or pulses is called Composite Signal. Thus Composite Video Signal may consist of Following Parts.Picture information (Data)Blanking Pulses (Delay Pulses)Vertical and Horizontal Synchronizing Pulses (controlling Pulses)Generally,A Combination of Data and Other Controlling Signal is Called Composite Signal .
