What is increase: Definition and 865 Discussions

In Demography, the rate of natural increase (RNI), also known as natural population change, is defined as the birth rate minus the death rate of a particular population, over a particular time period. It is typically expressed either as a number per 1,000 individuals in the population or as a percentage. RNI can be either positive or negative. It contrasts to total population change by ignoring net migration.
This RNI gives demographers an insight into how a region's population is evolving, and these analyses can inform government attempts to shape RNI.

    How to increase the current source/sink capacity of a digital PWM signal

    I would like to increase the maximum current that a PWM signal from a microcontroller can source/sink from +-25mA to +-500mA. The output should have the same peak-to-peak voltage (0 to 3.3V) and should not be inverted (i.e. follows the input). The PWM frequency is ~30kHz. I have looked...

    Why does total iron binding capacity increase in anaemia?

    Hello everyone, In anameia related to iron, plasma tranferring increases and iron decreases. How does this increase the total iron binding capacity of the enzyme. If I draw a sample of blood, there would be some transferrin enzymes in excess lowering iron binding capacity right? Thanks :smile:

    Increase in attraction as size of cation decreases

    We explain that as the size of metal cation decreases, the covalent character of the formed molecule increases. The reason given is that as the size decreases, the electron cloud is attracted more towards it as charge density is increased. Now, if I assume metal cation to be uniformly charged...
