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.

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

t=27725.8minutes

Explanation:

To determinate use the law the change of volume in determinate time is derivate so:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=flowin-flowout$

The flow in is zero and the flow out is modeling with V as the volume out in the volume of the lake in the reason of change.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=0-(\frac{V}{10x10^{8}})*5000\\\frac{dV}{dt}=-5x10^{-5}*V \\dV*V=-5x10^{-5}*dt$

Integrate to get the volume function

$\int\limits{\frac{1}{V}}\, dv=\int\limits{-5x10^{-5} }\, dt\\ ln(V)=-5x10^{-5}*t\\ln*e(V)=C*e^{-5x10^{-5}*t}\\$

The find the constant C in the time t=0 the volume is knowing so:

$t=0s\\V=400\\V=C*e^{0}\\C=400$

$V=400*e^{-5x10^{-5}*t}$

The volume is 1 part per million so:

$\frac{V}{10x^{8}}=\frac{1}{10x^{6}}\\ V=100$

$V=400*e^{-5x10^{-5}*t}\\100=400*e^{-5x10^{-5}*t}\\\frac{100}{400}=e^{-5x10^{-5}*t}\\ln*\frac{1}{4}=ln*e^{-5x10^{-5}*t}\\-ln(4)=-5x10^{-5}*t\\ t=\frac{-ln(4)}{-5x10^{-5}}=27725.88\\t=27725.8minutes$

a blackbody is radiating with a characteristic wavelength of 9 microns what is the blackbody temperature answer in kelvin

Daniel [21]

This question involves the concepts of Wein's displacement law and characteristic wavelength.

The blackbody temperature will be "3.22 x 10⁵ k".

<h3>WEIN'S DISPLACEMENT LAW</h3>

According to Wein's displacement law,

$\lambda_{max} T = c\\\\T=\frac{c}{\lambda_{max}}$

where,

$\lambda_{max}$ = characteristic wavelength = 9 μm = 9 x 10⁻⁹ m
T = temperature = ?
c = Wein's displacment constant = 2.897 x 10⁻³ m.k

Therefore,

$T=\frac{2.897\ x\ 10^{-3}\ m.k}{9\ x\ 10^{-9}\ m}$

T = 3.22 x 10⁵ k

How does a concave mirror form an image

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The correct option is (c) "it bounces the light towards a focal point"

Explanation:

There are two types of spherical mirrors i.e. concave and convex.

A concave mirror is a type of spherical mirror that is curved inwards. For this type of mirror the rays of light are bounced back and converge to the focal point of the mirror.

So, the correct option is (c).
