Staffing Levels Per Resident per Day. Medicare determines the expected staffing time per resident per day depending on level of care the residents of The Homestead Of Denison require. It is important to compare the reported time to expected time for a single facility instead of comparing the amount of time per resident of two facilities. Learn why.
Sols Edit. The term sol is used by planetary astronomers to refer to the duration of a solar day on Mars. A mean Martian solar day, or sol, is 24 hours, 39 minutes, and 35.244 seconds. When a spacecraft lander begins operations on Mars, the passing Martian days (sols) are tracked using a simple numerical count.
Another way to measure a day is to count the amount of time it takes for a planet to completely spin around and make one full rotation. This is called a sidereal day. On Earth, a sidereal day is almost exactly 23 hours and 56 minutes. We know how long an Earth day is, but how about the other planets in our solar system? How long does it take for those planets to spin one full rotation? And what is the best way to show the answer to this question?
