Is calcitrol is helpful in increasing height?
Although calcium is needed to have strong bones, strong and dense bones give your body a taller structure, but along with calcium vitamin D is also needed to absorb calcium from the digestive system. The best source for calcium is in natural foods. Calcium taken as supplements also helps but it also leads to many other health hazards like heart attack, heart blockage etc
Height also depends upon genes and human growth hormone (HGH). If your parents are taller then you have good genes and then you can be taller by taking healthy food. If pituary glands work abnormal then it may lead to a shortage
of HGH in body resulting in your short body.
But you can increase your height naturally.
it is about 163 cm..and the typical weight is around 60 kg.thanks
Are the Himalayas increasing in height?
The Earth's crust is fragmented and made up of moving plates. Convergent plate boundaries are those that move towards one another. When they collide, subduction usually takes place or that is, the denser plate slides underneath the less dense one. Sometimes, the plate boundaries cause buckling in the earth's crust creating mountains. Convergent boundaries have caused the deepest and tallest structures on Earth. Among those that have formed due to convergent plate boundaries are K2 and Mount Everest, the tallest peaks in the world. They formed when the Indian plate subducted or pushed underneath underneath the Eurasian plate on which the Himalayan Mountains set, gradually pushing Mt. Everest up higher and higher.
What is the average weight for an average height 9 year old girl?
I don't know but I am 4.9 in height & I'm 12. I weigh 67lbs but my dr. Wants me to be at LEAST 70lbs
What is the height and weight of a leopard?
The average height of Bengal tiger is 3 feet.
The weight ranges depends on available prey and habitat. The dense jungle tigers are smaller than those ones from grasslands because larger animals prefer open plains. The average dense-jungled tiger is between 165-210kg. The most common tiger weight is 193kg and 187kg. The average is 190kg or so. According to documentary film, the deeper in the jungle the tiger is, the less it weights. in the deep Sundarban tiger was averaged at just 172kg. 3km further, second tiger was weigh and averaged at 176kg. Third, the tigress was 126kg. Fourth tiger was another female weigh 122kg. The fifth and last tiger weigh 181kg. The North Indian desnse-jungle tiger are averaged at 198kg. In the west Burma, the dense jungle tiger was averaged at 185kg Second one was caught at weight of 188kg.
But as we move out of the forest, the tigers grow heavier. The not-dense forest tiger weights 207kg Second one caught at 218kg Third was 204kg. Females don't refer to be 120 kg. The four tigresses were weigh and averaged at 129kg. The tigers in limine between grasslands and jungles are averaged at 227kg. The biggest of weigh tigers was at weight of 242kg Those tigers rarely go below 200kg. Females averaged at weight of 136kg and 139kg. The North Indian in-limine tigers weigh between 240kg and 246kg.
Even though tigers are forest animals, the available prey is usually bigger on open plains. Good example would be the Gaur. 1150kg bull cannot move easily through the deep jungle and favours open grasslands because the smaller you are the easier you move in the deep jungle just like playing under the table. The bigger you get, the more difficult is for you to move between the chairs
Why does a bouncing ball not bounce perpetually but instead lose height with each bounce?
The Theoretical: As strange and "counter-intuitive" as it seems, if a ball has perfect elasticity and falls on a surface that absorbs absolutely no energy, and if there is absolutely no atmosphere to interfere with the ball's movement, and if there are no other possible ways for any of the materials involved to absorb or give up energy in any form (including heat and sound), the ball would bounce without losing height in subsequent bounces for eternity. As you will see, the question is about the conservation of energy, and not about Newton's third law. The Practical: There are no such conditions as described above. The ball loses energy at many stages, and as a result, it eventually stops. In other words, don't put much effort into using this concept to build the long-sought-after Perpetual Motion Machine. Although all the energy is accounted for, some is irretrievable to the system and no longer useful for propelling the ball. As a result, the ball cannot reach its original height, which means it has less potential energy than it had before its initial drop. The difference between the original height and the height attained by any subsequent bounces represents the net loss of energy to entropy at that point. The energy in the system continues to dissipate until the ball lacks the energy to bounce and comes to rest on the surface. No laws are violated, but a little energy (the energy given by the experimenter to the ball originally) is lost forever. When a ball is dropped from a height, the primary force acting on it is Earth's gravity, and right before it is dropped, the ball possesses gravitational potential energy. (The gravitational potential energy is the arithmetic product of the ball's mass, the constant of acceleration due to gravity, and the ball's height: Ep = mgh.) When the ball falls freely, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy (Ek = [1/2]mv2). When the ball hits the surface, its kinetic energy applies a "force of impact" on the surface, and the surface reacts with a nearly equal force of impact against the ball. Additionally, the surface and other materials involved will absorb some energy, leaving a little less energy to act upon the ball. The amount of energy absorbed by the surface depends on its nature and condition. It could be anything: loam, granite, a wooden table, ice, plastic. If the ball is a bowling ball, it might end there, with no rebound, possibly a shattered bowling ball and damage to the surface. In that case, all of the ball's kinetic energy not absorbed by the atmosphere would work to deform or crack the surface and shatter the ball. All the energy would be accounted for. But if the ball is elastic, then the side impacting the surface is compressed and deformed. If the ball is hollow, then the ball and the air inside are compressed, creating increased pressure inside the ball. The reaction to this pressure and compression is for the ball and air inside it to expand. The expansion applies force against the surface, which reacts by pushing back against the ball with force. But how much force? It cannot be the same amount of force, because energy has been lost. The surface has absorbed energy and heats up. The air has absorbed heat and sound energy. The material of the ball, which isn't close to being perfectly elastic, has absorbed energy that cannot be converted back to kinetic energy, and the air inside the ball heats up and adds heat to the material of the ball. The ball bounces and is now going up. If the ball retained all of the lost energy described above, it would rise to its starting point, but it cannot. Once again, air friction acts on the ball, the air and ball warm up, which adds to entropy and the loss of useful energy, so the ball lacks the kinetic energy required to reach its original height. That should seem no stranger than the idea (considered preposterous by Newton's contemporaries) that an object in motion tends to remain in motion -- for eternity. You could imagine such a "bouncing ball" system in your mind, and you can see that it represents a "thought experiment" in the conservation of energy. Since potential energy is directly related to the original height of the ball, if no energy is lost during the drop and rebound, then the ball must attain the original height on the rebound.
What is the proper height to mount a switch or receptacle?
Wall Switches: 48" / Receptacle Outlets (general): 18"
Receptacle Outlets (kitchen, utility room, etc) 42" or 6" above countertop
Telephone Outlets: 18" / Wall Intercom Stations: 48" / Wall Lighting Outlets: 84"
Thermostats: 48" / Bed Lights: 72"
There are more, but mostly used in commercial work.
All heights are from the top of the finish floor to center of box.
Other answers
A typical height is 18" off the floor. However you can generally put them at any height you think would be most convienient. Keep in mind, however, if they are significantly different then normal it may cause your house to be harder to sell in the future.
I don't know of any building codes that specify a height but you should check by calling your town building department, just in case.
<><><>
Your city building inspector can answer that one and you also need to know where the electrical outlets need to go. Almost all cities and towns adopt a uniform building code so I'd do an on line search for it. If you find the requirements for New York City they are probably the same as in Small Town USA.
<><><>
In USA 12" to the center of the outlet is typical for most applications. Basement, laundry and utility rooms 3-6". 4'-0" in bathrooms and garages.
<><><>
There is no height rule for receptacles in USA
Receptacle height is a matter of personal taste and practice.
General area receptacles in residences are commonly 12", 16" and 18" center, vertical installation. Older homes with existing devices in baseboard can be matched. Floor receptacles are allowed.
Answer for countries in Europe and other world areas running a 50 Hz power supply service.In the UK, in a new house it is a requirement to install light switches no higher than 1200 mm from floor level. For an extension they should be no higher than in the existing house.<><><>
As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

Does height effect potentail energy?
yes height effects potentail energy because if you have a meter stick and a ramp at 50 centemeters with a block at the bottom then roll a ball down the ramp the block at the bottom will go pretty long but if you put the ramp higher the block will go longer
i really dont know
but i would love to measure her
ahmm

What is the standard height for interior handrail in Toronto?
There are 2 standard heights for exterior railings in Canada, 36" and 42". The height required in your area will depend on local building codes.
What is the height of a midget?
The shortest living person is Junrey Balawing of the Philippines, whose height is 60 cm.. There were two people recorded as being shorter but they are no longer living and so Junrey is the shortest.
