Because an inactive person does not have as strong a heart muscle as an active person, therefore the heart must beat more frequently to pump the same amount of a blood that an active person's heart can pump with one beat.
To take a pulse, hold the wrist with only your two fingers pressed gently on the inside of the wrist. Palpate gently until you feel the pulse pulsating, and then count the number of pulse you feel for one minute. You can also do this by pressing your two fingers just under the chin bone on either side of the neck.Here is a general standard of pulse rate (PR). Resting Pulse Rate PR < 40 BMP - Below healthy resting heart rates. PR 40-60 BPM - Resting heart rate for sleeping. PR 60-100 BPM - Healthy adult resting heart rate. PR 100 BPM - 220 BPM -Acceptable if measured during exercise. Not acceptable if resting heart rate. PR > 220 BPM - Abnormally high heart rate.
If you are a long distance runner or triathelete, this may be normal for you. Otherwise you may have a condition called bradycardia, and you should be evaluated by a physician. Resting Pulse Rate PR < 40 BMP - Below healthy resting heart rates. PR 40-60 BPM - Resting heart rate for sleeping. PR 60-100 BPM - Healthy adult resting heartrate. PR 100 BPM - 220 BPM - Acceptable if measured during exercise. Not acceptable if resting heartrate. PR > 220 BPM - Abnormally high heart rate.
It is possible to have a pulse but no breathing as in asphyxiation, but the reverse is impossible, without a pulse you basically aren't alive, that pulse is a symbol of blood pumping through your body. Good answer above. I should add that, in some subjects, that pulse may be there but not be palpable.
In general, pulse width does not directly affect wave speed. The speed of a wave is determined by the medium through which it is propagating and the properties of that medium, rather than the pulse width itself. However, in practical applications, a shorter pulse width may allow for a higher data transmission rate in communication systems, which can indirectly impact the speed of information transfer.
A pulse of acoustic energy for active sonar is generated by a transducer, which converts electrical energy into sound waves. The transducer emits short bursts of sound, known as sonar pings, into the water. These sound waves travel through the medium and reflect off objects, allowing the sonar system to detect and locate underwater targets based on the time it takes for the echoes to return.
A person who has never exercised before would have a higher heart rate and blood pressure than an ahlete at rest. A athlete could have a heart rate below 60 BPM becauses they have a stronger and healthy heartEdit to add: Uhh ... While all of this may be true, the question is asking about a higher pulse pressure. Pulse pressure refers to the difference between systolic and diastolic pressure. Due primarily to decreases in the diastolic pressure observed in athletes, a resting athlete will have the higher *PULSE PRESSURE*.
The usual resting pulse for an adult is 60 to 100 beats per minute. Certain illnesses can cause your pulse to change, so it is helpful to know what your resting pulse is when you are well.
No. The resting pulse becomes slower. (Note, the top pulse rate for everybody is about the same ... the "exercise tolerance" comes from how much you can increase from your resting rate.)
The normal pulse rate for an adult is 60 to 100 beats per minute. In general, people that are physically fit have lower resting pulse rates, while people that are less physically fit tend to have a bit higher resting pulse rates.
A child's pulse rate is higher then an adult as they do more exercise but if a child is resting then it will be lower hoped this helped :)
The average resting heart rate is 70-90 beats per minute. The heart of a physically fit person, with a resting heart rate of 50, beats 9,512,000 times less per year than an average person's heart with a resting heart rate of 70 beats per minute. The better shape you are in, the lower your resting heart rate will be.
Your resting pulse is the rate of your pulse when you are resting (when your not doing exersice).
Probably higher than Bekele's, aproximately 40 bpm
Typically a normal resting pulse rate for a healthy 18-year-old could be within 60-80 pr. minute. This varies with the physical condition this person is in.A top athlete will, as an example, have a lower resting pulse than most normal individuals.Also typically a womans resting pulse rate will be higher than a males resting pulse rate.
the resting pulse rate for adult is in the range of 60-80 beats per minute & that of an obese adult will be higher than this, say up to 100 beats per minute.
If that's your resting pulse, call a doctor ASAP.
The average adult resting pulse rate is between 70-80 beats per minute. Athletes may have slightly lower pulse rates and obese people higher.
