Muscles function only by contracting. This makes it necessary for one end of the muscle to be fixed and the other mobile.
Take the bicep for example.
Its origin is at the shoulder and its two heads connect to the bones of the forearm, the radius and ulna.
Now, had the muscle not been fixed at one end, and contracted, it would pull both our shoulder and forearm together resulting in an ineffective movement. The desired motion is to lift the forearm (proximal and distal movement) which can only be achieved if the bicep is fixed at the shoulder and allowed to move at the forearm.
Answer:
Although the speed changes and wavelength changes, the frequency of the light will be constant. The frequency, wavelength, and speed are related by: The change in speed that occurs when light passes from one medium to another is responsible for the bending of light, or refraction, that takes place at an interface.
Explanation:
Answer:
4500.5 nutritional calories per gram
Explanation:
Heat lost by the new candy = heat gained by the bomb calorimeter.
Heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = c×ΔT
where c = heat capacity of the calorimeter = 32.20 KJ/K = 32200 J/K
ΔT = change in temperature = 2.69°C = 2.69 K.
Heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = 32200 × 2.69 = 86618 J
Heat lost by the new candy = heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = 86618 J = 20702.2 calories
4.60 g of the new candy lost this amount of calories by undergoing combustion,
The amount of calories per g = 20702.2 calories/4.6 g = 4500.5 calories per gram
The frequency of the
scattered photon decreases or it will be lower compare to the frequency of
incident photon. An x-ray photon scatters in one direction after a collision
and some energy is transferred to the electron as it recoils in another
direction resulting to have less energy in the scattered photon. In addition, the
frequencies will also depend on the differences of the angle at which the
scattered photon leaves the collision and this incident is called Compton Effect.
