The correct definition of a fracture is break in the bone

<u>Explanation:</u>

When nay injury results in the breaking or causing any cracking in the bones of any parts then this will lead to fracture. When the injury caused is near the ligament or tissue in which the bone is connected or attached then it will lead to an avulsion fractures. Thus this will lead to the pulling of bone form the original position thereby leading more pain in the spot associated with the fracture.

Sports people are the victims of this type of fracture. Fracture may occur anywhere mostly legs,hands,ankle,hip and elbow. sometimes it may be in finger, shoulder,knee,etc. The main symptoms that are associated with fracture includes, selling, inability in moving the fractured part or pain associated when trying to move that part, Loss of the affected part's function,etc.

Astronaut mark uri is space-traveling from planet x to planet y at a speed of relative to the planets, which are at rest relativ

lyudmila [28]

<span>From the point of view of the astronaut, he travels between planets with a speed of 0.6c. His distance between the planets is less than the other bodies around him and so by applying Lorentz factor, we have 2*</span>√1-0.6² = 1.6 light hours. On the other hand, from the point of view of the other bodies, time for them is slower. For the bodies, they have to wait for about 1/0.6 = 1.67 light hours while for him it is 1/(0.8) = 1.25 light hours. The remaining distance for the astronaut would be 1.67 - 1.25 = 0.42 light hours. And then, light travels in all frames and so the astronaut will see that the flash from the second planet after 0.42 light hours and from the 1.25 light hours is, 1.25 - 0.42 = 0.83 light hours or 49.8 minutes.

Write a note on unity of ant

Tom [10]

Answer: When a pathogen enters their colony, ants change their behavior to avoid the outbreak of disease. In this way, they protect the queen, brood and young workers from becoming ill. These results, from a study carried out in collaboration between the groups of Sylvia Cremer at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (IST Austria) and of Laurent Keller at the University of Lausanne, are published today in the journal Science.

Explanation: search for it.

A ray of light passes from air into a block of clear plastic. How does the angle of incidence in the air compare to the angle of

andre [41]

Answer:

The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction

Explanation:

Refraction occurs when a light wave passes through the boundary between two mediums.

When a ray of light is refracted, it changes speed and direction, according to Snell's Law:

$n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2$

where :

$n_1$ is the index of refraction of the 1st medium

$n_2$ is the index of refraction of the 2nd medium

$\theta_1$ is the angle of incidence (the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the boundary)

$\theta_2$ is the angle of refraction (the angle between the refracted ray and the normal to the boundary)

In this problem, we have a ray of light passing from air into clear plastic. We have:

$n_1=1.00$ (index of refraction of air)

$n_2=1.50$ approx. (index of refraction in clear plastic)

Snell's Law can be rewritten as

$sin \theta_2 =\frac{n_1}{n_2}sin \theta_1$

And since $n_2>n_1$ , we have

$\frac{n_1}{n_2}$

And so

$\theta_2$

Which means that

The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction

"In a Young’s double-slit experiment, the separation between slits is d and the screen is a distance D from the slits. D is much

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The number of bright fringes per unit width on the screen is, $x=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

Explanation:

If d is the separation between slits, D is the distance between the slit and the screen and $\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light. Let x is the number of bright fringes per unit width on the screen is given by :

$x=\dfrac{n\lambda D}{d}$

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

n is the order

If n = 1,

$x=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

So, the the number of bright fringes per unit width on the screen is $\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$ . Hence, the correct option is (B).
