Calibrating a conical tank 2011-02-05
From Bill:
Hi, I have a round tank with tapered sides where I know the diameter at the top and bottom. Is there a formula I can use to calculate the volume by measuring from the bottom up the side (at the angle of the side) to any given point? Thanks, Bill

I want to calibrate a glucose meter 2006-07-27
From John:
If I have 3 glucose control solutions having:
Low - 50 mg/dl
Normal - 100 mg/dl
High - 330 mg/dl

I want to calibrate a glucose meter but I need more than these 3 data points. How can I mix these up to get different concentrations in between 50 and 100, 100 and 330. I would like to mix up different concentrations and put them in test tubes or whatever to do some calibration work. Like 70 mg/dl, 90 mg/dl, etc. More data points should be in between say 50 and 100 since this is normal, 90 mg/dl is considered close to normal.
