Muscles function only by contracting. This makes it necessary for one end of the muscle to be fixed and the other mobile.
Take the bicep for example.
Its origin is at the shoulder and its two heads connect to the bones of the forearm, the radius and ulna.
Now, had the muscle not been fixed at one end, and contracted, it would pull both our shoulder and forearm together resulting in an ineffective movement. The desired motion is to lift the forearm (proximal and distal movement) which can only be achieved if the bicep is fixed at the shoulder and allowed to move at the forearm.
Answer:
(a) 0.177 m
(b) 16.491 s
(c) 25 cycles
Explanation:
(a)
Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = 2A ............ Equation 1
Where A = amplitude of the wave.
Given: A = 0.0885 m,
Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = (2×0.0885) m
Distance between the maximum and the minimum of the wave = 0.177 m.
(b)
T = 1/f ...................... Equation 2.
Where T = period, f = frequency.
Given: f = 4.31 Hz
T = 1/4.31
T = 0.23 s.
If 1 cycle pass through the stationary observer for 0.23 s.
Then, 71.7 cycles will pass through the stationary observer for (0.23×71.7) s.
= 16.491 s.
(c)
If 1.21 m contains 1 cycle,
Then, 30.7 m will contain (30.7×1)/1.21
= 25.37 cycles
Approximately 25 cycles.
Answer:
Each layer has its own properties, composition, and characteristics that affects many of the key processes of our planet. They are, in order from the exterior to the interior – the crust, the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core.
Explanation:
Air resistance doesn't appear in the formula for gravitational force, because it doesn't affect it. Mass does because it does.
