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:
Final Length = 30 cm
Explanation:
The relationship between the force applied on a string and its stretching length, within the elastic limit, is given by Hooke's Law:
F = kΔx
where,
F = Force applied
k = spring constant
Δx = change in length of spring
First, we find the spring constant of the spring. For this purpose, we have the following data:
F = 50 N
Δx = change in length = 25 cm - 20 cm = 5 cm = 0.05 m
Therefore,
50 N = k(0.05 m)
k = 50 N/0.05 m
k = 1000 N/m
Now, we find the change in its length for F = 100 N:
100 N = (1000 N/m)Δx
Δx = (100 N)/(1000 N/m)
Δx = 0.1 m = 10 cm
but,
Δx = Final Length - Initial Length
10 cm = Final Length - 20 cm
Final Length = 10 cm + 20 cm
<u>Final Length = 30 cm</u>
Answer:
Magnesium atomic no. = 24,25,26. These are the two elements which have same atomic no
Explanation:
Answer:
convection
Explanation:
Heat transfer by convection is caused by differences of temperature and density within a fluid.
In thermodynamics, work of a system at constant pressure conditions is equal to the product of the pressure and the change in volume. It is expressed as follows:
W = P(V2 - V1)
W = 1.3x10^5 (2x6 - 6 )
<span>W = 780000 J

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
