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

is promotes movement, using one of the muscles you observed as an example.

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.

Suppose a lion running at a velocity of 10 m/s east slows
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

a=0.34\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = 10 m/s

Final velocity, v = 0 (stops)

Time, t = 30 s

We need to find the acceleration of the lion.

We know that,

Acceleration = rate of change of velocity

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{10-0}{30}\\\\a=0.34\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the lion is 0.34\ m/s^2.

Looking that following diagram of bar magnets, determine if the magnets will or will not connect (attract) and why.
vovangra [49]

Answer: They will NOT connect because like poles are facing each other, and like poles repel each other.

What is the approximate de Broglie wavelength of a tennis ball with a mass of 70 g and a velocity of 10 m/s
dybincka [34]

The approximate de Broglie wavelength of a tennis ball is 9.4×10^(-34) m.

What is the de Broglie wavelength:

It is the wavelength that is associated with an object in relation to its momentum and mass is known as de Broglie wavelength.

A particle's de Broglie wavelength is usually inversely proportional to its force.

The formula of de Broglie wavelength:

  • λ = h / ( m*v )

here mass of a tennis ball is given

mass, m=70 g = 0.07 kg

ball is moving with velocity

v = 10 m/s

h is Plank constant,

h=6.63×10^(-34) Js

substituting the values in formula,

λ = 6.63×10^(-34) / ( 0.070*10)

λ = 9.4 ×10^(-34) m

Hence

The approximate de Broglie wavelength of a tennis ball is 9.4×10^(-34) m

If two objects are in thermal equilibrium, do they have the same thermal or internal energy?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Yes, they do have the same internal energy.

Explanation:

The thermal balance refers to when there is no heat transfer between the bodies and their surroundings i.e. the bodies and the environment are at the same temperature.

Suppose two bodies of different masses and different materials, each one of them is at a temperature of 25(° C), which is the same temperature as the temperature of the environment, if these two bodies are close to each other, there is also heat transfer as they are at the same temperature, in the absence of any type of energy that enter or exit in these bodies, the amount of internal energy will be equal in both bodies.

Note: when the internal energy of one of these bodies is increased, heat transfer will happen, always looking for the thermal balance.
