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.

A student measures the volume of a gas sample at several different temperatures. The results are tabulated as follows:Temperatur
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Check the first and the third choices:

<u><em /></u>

  • <u><em>a. The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume</em></u>
  • <u><em>b. The temperature-to-volume ratio of a gas is constant.</em></u>

Explanation:

Rewrite the table for better understanding:

Temperature of gas (K)     Volume of gas (L)

     298                                     4.55

     315                                      4.81

     325                                     4.96

     335                                        ?

Calculate the ratios temperature to volume with 3 significant figures:

  • 298 / 4.55 = 65.5
  • 315 / 4.81 = 65.5
  • 325 / 4.96 = 65.5

Then, those numbers show a <u><em>constant temperature-to-volume ratio</em></u>, which may be expressed in a formula as:

  • Temperature / Volume = constant, which is a directly proportional variation (the volume increases in a constant proportion to the increase of the temperature).

Hence, the correct choices are:

  • The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume (first statement), and
  • The emperature-to-volume ratio of a gas is constant (third statement).

The gravitational force between two objects is represented by the variable F. If the distance is decreased by 5 what is the new
Anvisha [2.4K]

The universal law of gravitation states that:

Every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force which is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

It means that if the gravitational force is F, then if the distance is decreased by 5 times, then the new gravitation force is:

F/5² = F/25

Calculate the displacement of a motorcycle that accelerates forward from rest to 7.0 m/s in 3.5 s.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

12.25 meters

Explanation:

s=1/2(v+u)t

s= displacement

v= final velocity

u= initial velocity

t= time

7m/s+0m/s divide by 2= 3.5 m/s velocity  Times 3.5 seconds=  12.25 meters
