X-rays of epiphyses enable doctors to estimate children’s ________

Physics

Mars2501 [29]4 years ago
7 0
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Skeletal age

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Epiphyses are the rounded portions at the ends of a bone separated from the metaphysis by the physis. The epiphysis contributes to a joint, compared with an apophysis which is a site of tendon or ligament attachment.
  • A bone age study helps doctors estimate the maturity of a child's skeletal system. It's usually done by taking a single X-ray of the left wrist, hand, and fingers.

What is the force applied to a baseball that has a mass of 142kg and has a acceleration of 30m/s to the power of 2
aev [14]
  • Mass=m=142kg
  • Acceleration=a=30m/s
  • Force=F

Using Newton's second law

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=ma

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=142(30)

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=4260N

Three sticks are arranged to form a right triangle. If the lengths of the three sticks are 0.47 m, 0.62 m and 0.78 m, what are t
Svetradugi [14.3K]

The angles in the triangle are 91 degrees, 53 degrees and 36 degrees respectively.

<h3>What is the cosine rule?</h3>

From the cosine rule we know that;

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcosC

Since;

a = 0.47 m

b =  0.62 m

c =  0.78 m

Then;

(0.78)^2 = (0.47)^2 + (0.62)^2 - 2(0.47 * 0.62)cosC

0.61 = 0.22 + 0.38 - 0.58 cosC

0.61 - ( 0.22 + 0.38) = - 0.58 cosC

0.01 = - 0.58 cosC

C = cos-1(0.01/-0.58)

C = 91 degrees

Using the sine rule;

b/Sin B = c/Sin C

0.62/sinB = 0.78/sin 91

0.62/Sin B = 0.78

B = sin-1 (0.62//0.78)

B = 53 degrees

Angle A is obtained from the sum of angles in a triangle;

180 - (91 + 53)

A = 36 degrees

22. A ball is thrown horizontally from the roof of a building 12 m tall with a speed of 3.1 m/s.
zysi [14]

Answer:

a) t = 1.6 s

b) d = 4.9 m

c) v = 16 m/s

d) θ = 79°

Explanation:

time of fall

t = √(2h/g) = √(2(12)/9.8) = 1.5649... s

d = vt = 3.1(1.56) = 4.8512...

vertical velocity vy = at = 9.8(1.56) = 15.336... m/s

v = √(15.336² + 3.1²) = 15.6464... m/s

θ = arctan(15.336/3.1) = 78.5724...°

Why do nuclear power plants use fission rather than fusion to generate
kicyunya [14]

B. Fusion requires very high pressure and temperature.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is the combination of atomic nuclei into larger ones with the release of a large amount of energy.

Nuclear fission is the decay process in which a heavy nuclide is bombarded with with neutrons.

  • Both processes release a huge amount of energy.
  • But fusion produces far more energy.
  • The reason why nuclear fusion is not in use is because of the high pressure and temperature needed start it.
  • The activation energy is high and the energy barrier is very great.
  • Only the core of the sun naturally favors fusion
