Measurement Mission

Reading a Rain Gauge

Reading a rain

gauge is simple. We can look at the measurement marks on the

side of a rain

capturing device, and find the level of water collected from a passing

storm. Depending on what system is used where we live, we can read inches or

millimeters and say how much rai

n has fallen. But the device collects a volume of

are units of

length,

instead of in pints or liters, which are units of

volume

?

Picture a Pool

To find a volume of an objec

t, in this case rainwater, you need to know the area of

the base of the object and its height. For a rectangular rain gauge you can measure

the area of the base like this:

length x width,

and then multiply by the

height

of the

water.

volume = length x widt

h x height

Now let’s put our hypothetical, rectangular rain gauge on the grass next to an

equally hypothetical and also rectangular swimming pool. Our swimming pool is

empty. A thunderstorm rains over both of them. They both collect a

volume

of

rainwater.

The base of a rain gauge is a small area (small

length x width

); you can hold one in

your hand. During a storm, you know by looking that it will collect a small volume

of rainwater. The base of a rectangular swimming pool

is a much larger area (big

length x width

). During that same storm, the pool will collect a much larger volume of rainwater.

But what about the

height

? Does the collected water rise the same amount in the swimming pool as it

does in the rain gauge?

The a

nswer is yes. Not

convinced? Think about it

this way.

Let’s fill our rectangular

swimming pool with row

upon row of rectangular

rain gauges sitting right

beside each other. The rain

gauges in the pool are

identical to each other and

to the on

e sitting on the

grass. We roll back time and

the storm rains again.

Rain gauges collect rain,

or snow, in one spot. By

looking at the level of

water and reading the

measurement mark on

the gauge, we can see

how much has fallen over

a period of time, in a 24

hour day, for example.

SIZING UP THE OPPORT

UNITY

The success of the Buffet@Asia restaurant chain

is based on customer volume. Its three locations

are packed from 10:00 in the morning until 10:00

at night. All locations offer a wide range of

inexpensive food options. This diversity, however,

comes at a cost, since an all

-you

-can

-eat buffet menu invites diners to eat from numerous fresh

clean plates. Consequently, the dishwashing

cycles are non

-stop. On a busy day, Buffet@Asia

washes 20,000 medium

-sized plates.

Reducing expenses is how owner Aaron Chen

keeps his prices low for his customer base. And

even at today™s relatively low natural gas prices,

energy costs can be expensive for restaurants

that use a lot of hot water and survive on very

tight profit margins.

Yet when customer and solar entrepreneur Dave

Zheng suggested the restaurant install a solar

water heating system to lower energy costs, Chen

was not immediately convinced. But Zheng, who

is an engineer, made a quick assessment of the

restaurant’s large hot water usage and was so

sure of positive results that he offered the

restaurant a money

-back guarantee on the cost of

the system if it did not meet Chen™s expectations.

Zheng designs solar water heating systems,

which absorb the sun™s energy to heat water. To

help Chen™s investment decision, a rebate was

available for solar water heating installations from

the local utility company, lowering the final cost of

the installation. Zheng incorporated the rebate

when calculating the potential savings for Chen.

TECHNOLOG

Y For large hot water energy loads, solar energy can

offer worthwhile cost savings. Unlike the more

common solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems,

which generate electricity, solar water heating

systems use the sun™s energy to heat water.

Similar to how the sun

heats water in a garden

hose on a hot day, the sun™s energy can also be

used to heat water using solar collectors.

Restaurants are a good fit for solar water heating,

Nationwide, restaurants and fast food establishments spend nearly 7 billion dollars

each year

on their total energy consumption. Mor

e than 40 percent of this energy

use goes for heat

ing and cooling applications, such as cooking, food preparation,

cleaning,

and

dishwashing as well as space heating or cooling. Restaurants are

good candidates for using renewable heating and cooling technologies to address

these needs and save money.

The

large kitchen is busy all day long

preparing a wide variety of choices.

How to calculate how much heat was lost from a falling or rolling object due to friction by measuring only the initial height and the final velocity

To do this we will use the law of conservation of energy.

Potential energy = energy due to height = energy lost due to friction+ kinetic energy

So… let’s write the equations… the pint here is to not have to measure the heat loss due to friction so we will not write the equation for it except for a single variable. For example, we won’t include the coefficient of friction.

Potential energy = mass*gravity*height=HeatEnergyLost+0.5*mass*velocity^2

The “^” symbol is the exponent symbol.

So…

HeatEnergyLost=mass*(gravity*height-0.5*velocity^2)

Note that height here should be the change in height and not the absolute height. It doesn’t matter for this scenario if we are talking about a falling object or an object rolling down a track.

How to calculate how high you can jump on Mars incorporating muscle deterioration

Theoretically on day 0 you could jump at the following height on Mars (Y), if you can jump on the earth at height X.

Y = X*GravityOnMars/GravityOnEarth

Note above that it is simply a ratio of the force of gravities that dictates this. You could do the same with any planet-including earth itself.

Y = X*GravityOnEarth/GravityOnEarth=X

However, we need to include muscle deterioration.

Muscle deterioration will change with the following differential equation:

d MuscleStrength / dt = -k* MuscleStrength

Note that the solution of MuscleStrength as a function of time is:

MuscleStrength(t) = MuscleStrengthInitial*exp(-k*t)

Note at time 0 you have:

MuscleStrength(t=0)=MuscleStrengthInitial and at time infinite we have:

MuscleStrength(t=infinite)=MuscleStrengthInitial*exp(-k*infinite)= 0.

It makes sense, however, that our muscle strength on Mars would not go to zero. We thus need to correct for that. So we add a term for the baseline on Mars:

MuscleStrengthMarsBaseline

But we need to ensure that the initial muscle strength is not also including the baseline so that the MuscleStrength at time zero is higher than the initial value itself.

So:

MuscleStrength(t) = (MuscleStrengthInitial-MuscleStrengthMarsBaseline)*exp(-k*t)+ MuscleStrengthMarsBaseline

Let’s put it all together now:

Y = X*GravityOnMars* ((MuscleStrengthInitial-MuscleStrengthMarsBaseline)*exp(-k*t)+ MuscleStrengthMarsBaseline )/GravityOnEarth

Now you can calculate how high you can jump on Mars in time incorporating a muscle deterioration rate constant, k.

One thing that I would like to pony out regarding the deterioration rate constant is that if you were to fit a curve to the muscle deterioration rate constant with biexponential degradation (and it will definitely fit better than monoexponential) then you could use this k below:

k= k1*k2/(k1+k2)

The equation above combines both. I am not suggesting you should fit a biexponential curve to it. Monoexponential may be perfectly fantastic.

Best wishes,
