Answer: Opposite direction

Skeletal muscles arise in antagonistic pairs where the muscles contract to produce opposite movements at the same joint. Antagonistic muscles move a body part in one direction by contraction, the other moves that part in opposite direction.

In addition, when a muscle contracts to produced movement, its antagonist relaxes to allow movement to take place such as biceps muscles is a flexor muscle for elbow joint and triceps is the antagonist.

1. Which has more kinetic energy, a 40 kg cheetah running at 25 m/s or a 4,000 kg elephant moving at 2 m/s? How much more energy
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1. The elephant has more kinetic energy at this speed and mass. It has 4,500 J more KE.

2. The elephant would have to go at a speed of 2.5 m/s to reach the same KE as the cheetah.

Explanation:

You would use the formula KE=1/2mv^2.

This formula would be filled in and completed twice, once for the elephant and once for the cheetah.

Cheetah:

KE = 1/2 (40) (25) ^2

KE = 12,500 J

Elephant:

KE = 1/2 (4,000) (2) ^2

KE = 8,000 J

This shows that the cheetah has more KE.

Then you would subtract the elephants amount of J from the cheetahs to find the difference.

Difference = 12,500 J - 8,000 J

Difference = 4,500 J

I hoped this helped with the first part :)

For the second part:

To find the speed the elephant would have to run you would fill in and complete the equation once more with different distance results.

KE = 1/2 (4,000) (2.5) ^2

KE= 12,500 J

a girl skateboards with a kinetic energy of 2543.2 J. if the girl and the skateboard have a total mass of 110 kg, what is her sp
zhuklara [117]
     Using the definition of kinetic energy, we have:

E_{c}= \frac{mv^2}{2}  \\ 2543.2*2=110v^2 \\ \boxed {v=6.8m/s}

Why are protons and neutrons are similar and different than each other? Explain why.
xz_007 [3.2K]
 Protons and neutrons are in the center of the atom, making up the nucleus. The proton and electron are exactly the same size but different,Since the difference charges attract, protons and electrons attract each other.

In what atmospheric layer do we find the highest concentration of ozone? the highest average air temperature?
Veseljchak [2.6K]
The Stratosphere contains the highest concentration of the ozone, this is because the ozone is located here. The Thermosphere has the highest average air temperature also seen as the hot layer, and the Mesosphere is the lowest average sir temperature.
