What is the difference between a bone and a muscle?

Muscles are attached to bones; they help us walk and run and smile. All the bones in our body make up our skeleton from the top of our skull to the tips of the phalanges at the end of our toes. Muscles stretch across our bones and are attached with tendons.

Answer:

They are different because....

Explanation:

Muscles: produce heat for the body to sustain temperature, helps with balance, posture and muscle tone - partial contraction of muscles taking turns to hold the neck up for example. 3 types of muscle, being; cardiac (found in the heart as a thick, branched arrangement of muscle cells), skeletal (the ones you can flex and aid movement) and smooth (found in the uterus and alimentary canal, aiding internal movement). So the main purpose is movement, heat and balance.

Bones: leverage movement, protect vital internal organs, provide a framework for the body, produce red blood cells from red bone marrow, store minerals and fat in yellow bone marrow, in the middle of the bone, known as the diaphysis. The last one is also that they allow our joints to connect provide a foundation for tendons to attach to. There are also many types of joints, but that’s for another time.

Hope this helps :)

In its search for flying insects, a bat uses an echolocating system based on pulses of high frequency sound. These pulses are 2.
oee [108]

The amount of energy that a wave may transfer to a unit area of a surface each second is measured as the wave's intensity. Watts per square meter is a unit used to express intensity. A sound wave's frequency is equal to its rate of vibration, and its intensity is determined by its amplitude.

<h3>What is the intensity of sound waves affect the frequency?</h3>

The energy of a vibration is quantified in decibels as intensity or loudness (dB). A sound has a high intensity if it is loud.

Therefore, perceive noise as louder the higher the frequency, although frequency does not indicate how loud a sound is.

An advanced computer sends information to its various parts via infrared light pulses traveling through silicon fibers (n = 3.50
sasho [114]

Answer:

d = 6.43 cm

Explanation:

Given:

- Speed resistance coefficient in silicon n = 3.50

- Memory takes processing time t_p = 0.50 ns

- Information is to be obtained within T = 2.0 ns

Find:

- What is the maximum distance the memory unit can be from the central processing unit?

Solution:

- The amount of time taken for information pulse to travel to memory unit:

                            t_m = T - t_p

                            t_m = 2.0 - 0.5 = 1.5 ns

- We will use a basic relationship for distance traveled with respect to speed of light and time:

                           d = V*t_m

- Where speed of light in silicon medium is given by:

                           V = c / n

- Hence,              d = c*t_m / n

-Evaluate:           d = 3*10^8*1.5*10^-9 / 3.50

                           d = 0.129 m 12.9 cm

- The above is the distance for pulse going to and fro the memory and central unit. So the distance between the two is actually d / 2 = 6.43 cm

When you have two materials with the same index of refraction, it means that
gavmur [86]

Answer:

When you have two materials with the same index of refraction, it means that if they are touched by a ray of light it won't have a chance, and its form would prevail.

Explanation:

The reason behind this is that in the first place. When light passes through an object of certain refraction it is modified from its natural state, allowing it to change in color to the human eye or many other effects in other perceptive elements. However, when the same light passes through two objects with the same refraction due to their physical characteristics, it doesn't change because once it comes out of the first one it will suffer the same effect from the last one. For it to change the refraction would have to be higher or lower. Then it would be modified. The reason is because the dimensions are not modified. Because at some point the ray of light has to come out of the first one to enter the second one.
