1 answer:

5 0

The answers are as follows:
61. Deltoid muscle is the muscle that is located at the rounded contour of the shoulder. The muscle is made up of three different type of fibers, which are anterior, middle and posterior fibers. The anterior deltoid connects the collar bone to the humerus.
The primary function of the anterior fibers is flexion and medial rotation of the arm. The primary function of the middle fibers is abduction of arm and the primary function of the posterior fiber is the extension and lateral rotation of the arm.

62. Adductor muscles are muscles that draw a part of the body towards its median line or towards the axis of an extremity. These muscles can be found in the thigh, foot and hand. The abductor muscles is made up of the following muscles:
a. Adductor brevis: its primary function is the adduction of thigh at the hip joint. It also assist in flexion and medial rotation of the femur at the hip joint.
b. Adductor longus: its primary function is the adduction of thigh at the hip joint. It assist also in flexion and medial rotation of the femur at the hip joint.
c. Adductor magnus: its primary function is the adduction of the thigh. It assists in lateral rotation of the thigh.
d. Gracillis muscle: its primary function is adduction of the thigh. It also assists in flexion of the knee and medial rotation of the flexed knee.
e. Pectineus muscle: Primary function is adduction of thigh. Assists in flexion of thigh.

63. Erector spinae muscles are bundles of paired muscles and tendons which extend through the thoracic, lumbar and the cervical region. These muscles are divided into three groups, which are:
a. Spinallis muscles: primary function is the extension of the head. Also rotate the head.
b. Longissimmus muscles: primary function is extension of the spine. Assist in lateral flexion of the spine.
c. Lliocostalis muscles: primary function is extension of the spine. Assist in lateral flexion of the spine.

64. Rectus abdomini is the paired muscle, which runs vertically on each side of the anterior wall of human abdomen. The muscle is made up of two parralle muscles which are separated by connective tissues. The primary function of the muscle is flexion of the vertebra column. Assists in compression of abdominal wall.

For two objects in space with very different masses, the gravitational force causes:

guajiro [1.7K]

The answer is B. The less massive object to orbit the more massive object.
Explanation: The more massive the object, the larger its gravitational pull.
Example: the moon orbits the earth because the moon’s mass is smaller than earth, earth orbits the sun because the earth’s mass is smaller than the sun..

A swimmer swims 1000 m in the pool in 8.6 minutes. What was the average speed of the swimmer in m/s?

lawyer [7]

Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Speed = (1,000 meters / 8.6 minutes) x (1 minute / 60 seconds) = 1.94 m/s

A newly discovered planet is found to have a density if 2/3pe and a radius of 2RE, where PE and RED are the density and radius o

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Missing question in the text of the exercise. Found on internet:
"What is the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the planet?"

Solution:
The gravitational acceleration at Earth's surface is given by:
$g= \frac{GM}{r^2}$
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
r is the Earth's radius

The Earth's mass can be rewritten also as the product between the Earth's density, $d$ , and its volume (the volume of a sphere of radius r):
$M=dV=d ( \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3)= \frac{4}{3} \pi d r^3$

Now let's call M' the mass of the new planet, r' its radius and d' its density. The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the new planet is
$g' = \frac{GM'}{r'^2}$ (1)
so we need to find M' and r'.

The problem says the radius of the new planet is twice the Earth's radius:
$r'=2r$ (2)
and that its density is 2/3 of Earth's density:
$d'= \frac{2}{3} d$
so the mass M' of the new planet is, with respect to the Earth's mass:
$M' = d'V' = \frac{4}{3} \pi d' (r')^3 = \frac{4}{3} \pi ( \frac{2}{3}d) (2r)^3 = ( \frac{4}{3} \pi d r^3 )( \frac{16}{3}) = \frac{16}{3} M$ (3)

And if we substitute (2) and (3) into (1), we find the gravitational acceleration on the surface of the new planet:
$g'= \frac{G( \frac{16}{3}M) }{(2r)^2}= \frac{GM}{r^2} \frac{4}{3} = \frac{4}{3}g$
And since $g=9.81 m/s^2$ , we find
$g'= \frac{4}{3}(9.81 m/s^2)=13.1 m/s^2$
