The Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel, is the thickest and strongest tendon in the body. In extreme a

ctivities, such as sprinting, it can be subjected to forces as high as 13.0 times a person's weight. According to one set of experiments, the average area of the Achilles tendon is 78.2 mm^2 , its average length is 26 cm , and its average Young's modulus is 1474 MPa . How much tensile stress is required to stretch this muscle by 5.2% of its length? If we model the tendon as a spring, what is its force constant? If a 75 kg sprinter exerts a force of 13.0 times his weight on his Achilles tendon, by how much will it stretch?

Why transparent object don't form a shadow​
Pani-rosa [81]

Explanation:

Transparent objects do not form shadows. The light passes completely from the transparent objects thus these objects will not form shadow. ... In such objects, the light gets refracted thus, such objects forms shadow. The refraction is also the reason why we can see such objects.

A light bulb dissipates 100 Watts of power when it is supplied a voltage of 220 volts.
ycow [4]

Given Information:

Power = P = 100 Watts

Voltage = V = 220 Volts

Required Information:

a) Current = I = ?

b) Resistance = R = ?

Answer:

a) Current = I = 0.4545 A

b) Resistance = R = 484 Ω

Explanation:

According to the Ohm’s law, the power dissipated in the light bulb is given by

P = VI

Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and P is the power dissipated in the light bulb.

Re-arranging the above equation for current I yields,

I = \frac{P}{V}  \\\\I = \frac{100}{220} \\\\I = 0.4545 \: A \\\\

Therefore, 0.4545 A current is flowing through the light bulb.

According to the Ohm’s law, the voltage across the light bulb is given by

V = IR

Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and R is the resistance of the light bulb.

Re-arranging the above equation for resistance R yields,

R = \frac{V}{I} \\\\R = \frac{220}{0.4545} \\\\R = 484 \: \Omega

Therefore, the resistance of the bulb is 484 Ω

What is a homopolar motor?????)
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

A homopolar motor is a direct current electric motor with two magnetic poles, the conductors of which always cut unidirectional lines of magnetic flux by rotating a conductor around a fixed axis so that the conductor is at right angles to a static magnetic field.
