It is important to identify compensations seen during the modified thomas test because option D: most people have short/stiff anterior hip muscles.

The modified Thomas test measures the femur's angle of abduction in relation to the pelvis, which is an objective measure, and the pelvic position is constant when comparing results from one test to another. The lower extremity on the concerned side won't be able to stretch all the way at the hip if the iliopsoas muscle is short or there is a contracture. This results in a favourable Thomas test result. This therefore, implies that option D is the right choice.

A psoas dysfunction may occasionally coexist with a very flexible patient's Thomas test being normal. However, a positive test is a good indication of psoas hypertonicity in the patient with a normal hip joint.

Mass in motion is also know as
puteri [66]

This property of massive bodies to resist changes in their state of motion is sometimes called inertia. The Second Law of Motion describes what happens to a massive body when it is acted upon by an external force.

Newton was one of the most influential scientists of all time. His ideas became the basis for modern physics. He built upon ideas put forth from the works of previous scientists including Galileo and Aristotle and was able to prove some ideas that had only been theories in the past. He studied optics, astronomy and math — he invented calculus. (German mathematician Gottfried Leibniz is also credited with developing it independently at about the same time.)

Newton is perhaps best known for his work in studying gravity and the motion of planets. Urged on by astronomer Edmond Halley after admitting he had lost his proof of elliptical orbits a few years prior, Newton published his laws in 1687, in his seminal work "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy) in which he formalized the description of how massive bodies move under the influence of external forces.

In formulating his three laws, Newton simplified his treatment of massive bodies by considering them to be mathematical points with no size or rotation. This allowed him to ignore factors such as friction, air resistance, temperature, material properties, etc., and concentrate on phenomena that can be described solely in terms of mass, length and time. Consequently, the three laws cannot be used to describe precisely the behavior of large rigid or deformable objects; however, in many cases they provide suitably accurate approximations.
