How do you calculate accident severity index?
Severity Index= no. of fatal accidents / total no. of injury accidents
BMI is the abbreviation of Body Mass Index.
Although it cannot be used to measure the percentage of body fat it is useful to estimate body weight based on a person's height.
For doctors and others involved in the medical industry it is the most commonly used diagnostic to identify weight problem because of the simple calculation needed to find one's BMI.
No. "Temperature" means "how hot it is".
(The larger mass could have more or less heat energy in it, though.
Even if they're both at the same temperature.)
Your bmi is 25 and you are 6ft 3 do you need to lose weight?
from http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/bmicalc.htm :
* Underweight = <18.5 * Normal weight = 18.5-24.9 * Overweight = 25-29.9 * Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater There's also a formula here to calculate BMI yourself:
http://www.whathealth.com/bmi/formula.html And also, muscle will affect BMI calculations, meaning a strong athletic person will probably have a higher BMI, while not actually being overweight.
How long does it take for the body to enter ketosis on a water fast?
Prepare yourself for the many side effects you may experience during fasting, like headaches, dizziness and nausea. Be prepared to stop the fast before any of these symptoms become overwhelming.
If you're stopping the fast don't eat large meals start with small ones, you're body will need to readopt.
Based on weight alone, it would be unlikely that someone with an eating disorder would be sectioned if they attempted to leave hospital with a BMI 17.5. Detaining people under the mental health act is always used as a last resort, and in order to be detained there needs to be adequate medical evidence that it is necessary.
Based on weight alone, generally a bmi at which someone may be sectioned would be ROUGHLY any where from bmi 13 and under.
HOWEVER...
Treatment should never be based on weight alone/bmi and other factors, such as blood chemistry, physical strength including heart rate etc, psychological factors i.e suicidal ideation, severe self harm should always be considered.
Meaning that, someone with a bmi of 17.5 WITH another health issue related to their eating disorder can be sectioned if it is agreed necessary to preserve life or the individuals life would be at serious risk if left to their own devices.
At any weight with any form of eating disorder, providing the individuals health is seriously compromised in some form, for example, an individual with Bulimia at a BMI 22 presents with extremely low potassium levels and refuses treatment, then this person may well be sectioned.
It is maybe more common that people sectioned for their eating disorder are at lower weights, because of the many health issues that accompany low body weight. It is important though, to recognise that ALL eating disorders are dangerous and ALL eating disorders can be life threatening, regardless of weight.
Hope that helps a tad.
Does breastfeeding increase BMI?
No, breastfeeding does not increase the BMI of the mother or the infant. In fact, breastfeeding actually burns calories and helps the mother lose weight after giving birth, and many studies show that breastfed babies actually have a lower BMI once they reach school age.
However, the average C cup breast weighs 5lbs each. The average G cup weighs 10lbs each. Depending on the build of the woman, and the enlargement of the breasts during breastfeeding, the BMI can go up, but due to the increased cup size.
What exercises will increase lean body mass?
Engage in a high-intensity resistance-training routine. Work all of the large muscle groups, including your quads, back, shoulders, legs, hamstrings, arms and chest. Start with a light weight and do a warm-up set for 10 to 12 reps. Increase the weight by 5 to 10 lb. and do another set for 10 to 12 reps. Continue this process until you find a weight that allows you to fail at around eight repetitions. This is your target weight. The amount of weight greatly varies depending on the person and the exercise. When you find your target weight for each exercise, record it and strive to surpass it in reps next time. When you surpass it, increase the target weight by 5 to 10 lb. Do a full-body workout three times a week.
Eat lean proteins and complex carbohydrates. Reduce saturated fats and cut out trans fats completely. Fish, chicken breast, lean beef, nuts, beans and yogurt are all examples of lean proteins. Complex carbohydrates, such as breads, rice and oatmeal, give your body sufficient energy that it needs to live. Whole-grain breads and brown rice have more fiber than white breads and rice, but both are complex carbs. Eat vegetables daily with your meals and eat fruits for breakfast and snacks.
Engage in a regular cardiovascular routine. Run, walk, jog, swim or bike at least three times a week for 30 minutes. Cardiovascular exercise helps your body shed fat and burn calories. Cardio also increases your endurance, strengthens your heart and improves the overall condition of your health.
Increase your consumption of essential fatty acids. Omega-6 and -3 fatty acids are necessary components of not only building lean muscle mass, but also overall normal growth and brain function. These acids are not found in the body naturally. They must be consumed in the foods you eat. These acids are found in fish oil, flax oil, pumpkin seeds, sesame oil, hemp oil, walnuts, pistachios, eggs, leafy green vegetables and soybeans.
Drink plenty of water. Water is necessary for all healthy bodily functions, including weight loss and muscle gain. Water helps your muscles recover from the strain they undergo in weight training and moves the oxygen flow throughout your body. When you are hydrated, you are also able to quell false hunger cravings that may spur from dehydration.
Rest and give your body adequate time to recover. Do not over-train. Rest and recovery are important factors in developing muscle growth. If you do not allow your muscles to heal properly with adequate rest, you can hinder your results and cause harm to your body. Only lift weights every other day.
If you're eating right, exercising right and in reasonable health, don't worry about it. Unfortunately, today's entertainment media is focusing a lot on body image. Just be grateful that you're healthy, growing and doing well. Remember that muscle mass weighs more than fat and that nothing is more attractive than someone who has good muscle tone.
There are quite a few people who have a very low body fat content but are technically overweight if you just look at the charts. Stay active and eat well. That's the best thing you can do for yourself.
AnswerYou don't weight too much. Be careful when comparing yourself to magazine models and other friends. Weight is determined by a lot of factors, including muscle mass, bone structure and unique body traits. If you eat right and get exercise, you can be healthy for a lifetime.

How center of mass can not lie with in the body?
The simplest answer is to look at it this way. Take a circular piece of steel (not a flat disk but a rod formed into a circle). The center of mass will be in the center of the circle, which is not within the body of the steel.
