Tendon Sheath - is a specialized bursa that wraps around a tendon to reduce friction.

<h3>What is Tendon Sheath ?</h3>

Tendon Sheath is a thin layer of tissue, surrounds each tendon in our body. The tendon sheath can also be called synovial lining or fibrous sheath. Tendon sheaths help to protect tendons from abrasive damage as they move.

Connection between Bursa and Tendon Sheath : Bursae are small fluid-filled sacs that can lie under a tendon, cushioning the tendon and protecting it from the injury. Bursae also provides an extra cushioning to adjacent structures that otherwise might rub against each other, which will cause wear and tear ( example, between a bone and a ligament ) .

So, lastly we can say that Tendon Sheath is the specialized bursa that wraps around a tendon to reduce friction.

Difference between relaxation time and collision time?
Black_prince [1.1K]
For the answer to the question above, let us first start with relaxation time. it is the absence of an external electric field, the free electrons in a metallic substance will move in random directions so that the resultant velocity of free electrons in any direction is equal to zero. While the Collision time it is<span> the mean </span>time<span> required for the direction of motion of an individual type particle to deviate through approximately as a consequence of </span>collisions<span> with particles of type.</span>

1)
p = 2.4 * 10^5 Pa
T = 18° C + 273.15 = 291.15 k
r = 0.25 m => V = [4/3]π(r^3) = [4/3]π(0.25m)^3 = 0.06545 m^3 = 65.45 L

Use ideal gas equation: pV = nRT => n = pV / RT = [2.4*10^5 Pa * 0.06545 m^3] / [8.31 J/k*mol * 291.15k] = 6.492 mol

Avogadro number = 1 mol = 6.022 * 10^23 atoms

Number of atoms = 6.492 mol * 6.022 *10^23 atom/mol = 39.097 * 10^23 atoms = 3.91 * 10^24 atoms

2) Double atoms => double volume

V2 / V1 = r2 ^3 / r1/3

2 = r2 ^3 / r1 ^3 => r2 ^3 = 2* r1 ^3

r2 = [∛2]r1

The factor is ∛2
