Tendons. Tendons are strong elastic fibers that attach muscles to bones. To a reasonable approximation, they obey Hooke’s law. I

n laboratory tests on a particular tendon, it was found that, when a 250-g object was hung from it, the tendon stretched 1.23 cm. (a) Find the force constant of this tendon in N>m. (b) Because of its thickness, the maximum tension this tendon can support without rupturing is 138 N. By how much can the tendon stretch without rupturing, and how much energy is stored in it at that point?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of object(m)=250 gm

Stretching(x)=1.23 cm

Suppose force constant to be k

then kx=mg

k\times 1.23\times 10^{-2}=250\times 10^{-3}\times 9.8

k=\frac{9.8\times 100}{4\times 1.23}

k=199.18 N/m

(b)Maximum Tension is 138 N

138=kx

x=\frac{138}{199.18}=0.692\approx 69.2 cm

Energy stored=\frac{kx^2}{2}=\frac{199.18\times (0.692)^2}{2}=47.80 J

What best describes desert pavements
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A common theory suggests that desert pavements are formed through gradual removal of sand and other fine particles by the wind and intermittent rains leaving behind the large fragments. The larger rock particles are shaken into place by actions of different agents such as rain, wind, gravity, and animals

How does the total amount of energy change as the spring goes up and down?
NeX [460]

The total amount of energy always stays the same because of the law of conservation of energy, meaning that there is always the same amount of energy, it just gets turned into different forms like potential energy, kinetic energy, sound, thermal, etc.

Please I really need the help
Lunna [17]

Answer:

7) there is a theory that these animals can see the magnetic field of the Earth due to a compass like mechanism inside their eyes in order to navigate.

8) Earth's magnetic field is a result of the currents found inside the outer core that consist of electricity.

A thermally insulated vessel containing a gas whose molar mass is equal to M and the ratio of specific heats cP /cV = γ moves wi
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

∆T = Mv^2Y/2Cp

Explanation:

Formula for Kinetic energy of the vessel = 1/2mv^2

Increase in internal energy Δu = nCVΔT

where n is the number of moles of the gas in vessel.

When the vessel is to stop suddenly, its kinetic energy will be used to increase the temperature of the gas

We say

1/2mv^2 = ∆u

1/2mv^2 = nCv∆T

Since n = m/M

1/2mv^2 = mCv∆T/M

Making ∆T subject of the formula we have

∆T = Mv^2/2Cv

Multiple the RHS by Cp/Cp

∆T = Mv^2/2Cv *Cp/Cp

Since Y = Cp/CV

∆T = Mv^2Y/2Cp k

Since CV = R/Y - 1

We could also have

∆T = Mv^2(Y - 1)/2R k
