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.

Why are a 12 ounce hard seltzer and 1.5 ounces of liquor both standard drinks? alchohol edu

Mars2501 [29]

12 ounce hard seltzer and 1.5 ounces of liquor are standard drinks because they contain the <u>same amount</u><u> </u><u>of </u><u>pure alcohol</u>

<h3>What is standard drink?</h3>

This is a term used to refer to the measure of alcoholic content of drinks such that the drink should have 14 grams of pure alcohol or 0.6 fluid ounces of pure alcohol. This concept of standard drink is applicable in the United States of America.

The equivalence of a standard drink is 5 percent alcohol as seen in regular beer, 12 percent as seen in wines, and 40 percent as seen in distilled spirits. This measurement in taken by the percentage of the total volume of the beverage. hence the quantity of the drink or beverage may be different as the percentage is what determines the amount of alcohol present

From standard drink chart both drinks has same amount of pure alcohol so they are said to be standard drinks

A car is traveling at 108 km/h, stuck behind a slower car. Finally the road is clear and the car pulls over to make a pass. The

mezya [45]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the car is 2.143 meters per square second.

Explanation:

Let assume that car accelerates uniformly, in that case, we can obtain the value of acceleration by using the following equation of motion:

$v = v_{o}+a\cdot t$

Where:

$v_{o}$ - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final velocity, measured in meters per second.

$a$ - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

Now, we clear acceleration within expression:

$a = \frac{v-v_{o}}{t}$

Initial and final velocities are now converted from kilometers per hour into meters per second:

$v_{o} = \left(108\,\frac{km}{h} \right)\cdot \left(1000\,\frac{m}{km} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{3600}\,\frac{h}{s} \right)$

$v_{o} = 30\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v = \left(135\,\frac{km}{h} \right)\cdot \left(1000\,\frac{m}{km} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{3600}\,\frac{h}{s} \right)$

$v = 37.5\,\frac{m}{s}$

If we know that $t = 3.5\,s$ , then, the average acceleration of the car is:

$a = \frac{37.5\,\frac{m}{s}-30\,\frac{m}{s} }{3.5\,s}$

$a = 2.143\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

The average acceleration of the car is 2.143 meters per square second.

What is electric force

AysviL [449]

Electric force occurs between positive and negative electric charge. It can be calculated with formula $F=\frac{Q_1Q_2}{A\epsilon_0\epsilon_r}$ where F is force, Q1 and Q2 are charges, A is area of object usually ball ( $A=4\pi r^2$ ) because we describe charges as points in space like electrons and protons, $\epsilon_0$ is a natural dielectric constant of empty space or vacuum ( $\epsilon_0=8.85\times10^{-12}\mathsf{\frac{As}{Vm}}$ ) and $\epsilon_r$ also known as relative dielectric variable.

There are two types of the force:

1. Attractive electric force

2. Repulsive electric force

Attractive electric force occurs between positively and negatively charged objects while repulsive occurs between equally charged objects for eg. (positive and positive will repulse).
