Why is it important for a muscle to be attached to a fixed origin at one end and a moving insertion at the other? Discuss how th

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.

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The heat loss during the process = -4000 J

Explanation:

Work done by the student (W) = - 1000 J

Negative sign on the system is due to work done on the system.

Decrease in internal energy (U) = - 3000 J

We know that heat transfer in the system is given by (Q) = U + W

⇒ Q = - 1000 - 3000

⇒ Q = - 4000 J

This is the value of heat transfer during the process And negative sign indicates that heat loss during the process.

Why is it important to assess flexibility both before and during a workout regimen? a. to assess flexibility progress b. to keep
lidiya [134]

It important to assess flexibility both before and during a workout regimen because to assess flexibility progress.

<h3>What is a flexibility exercise?</h3>

Flexibility exercises, as the name implies, help to increase the stretch of the muscles, improving the range of motion. More flexibility is also important to help prevent possible post-workout soreness.

In this case we have that the reason to continue doing stretching before and during the exercises is about  to assess flexibility progress.

the velocity of a car traveling in the positive direction decreases from 32 m/s to 24 m/s in 4 seconds. what is the average acce
anastassius [24]

Answer:

a=-2m/sec^2

Negative sign shows that velocity of the car is decreases at a constant rate

Explanation:

We have given velocity of the car is decreases from 32 m /sec to 24 m/sec in 4 second

So initial velocity of the car u = 32 m /sec

And finally car reaches to a velocity of 24 m/sec

Time taken to change in velocity = 4 sec

So final velocity v = 24 m/sec

From first equation of motion v = u+at

So 24=32+a\times 4

a=-2m/sec^2

Negative sign shows that velocity of the car is decreases at a constant rate

An ac generator with peak voltage 100 volts is placed across a 10-? resistor. What is the average power dissipated?
Romashka [77]
The correct answer is: Average Power  = 500 W

Explanation:
Root-mean square voltage = Vrms = Vpeak /√2 = 100 / √2 volts
Resistance = R = 10 Ω
Average power = Pavg = (Vrms)^2<span> / R </span>= (100 * 100) / (2 * 10) = <span>500 W</span>
