Medical prosthetic implants, such as hip replacements, are, at present, made of metals such as stainless steel or titanium. Thes

e metals are much stiffer than the bone, giving poor transfer of load into the bone. New composite materials aim for closer stiffness match. One uses a matrix of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) reinforced with particulate hydroxyapatite (HA), the natural mineral in bone. Data for experimental composites are listed below. Thoseforbone andforthebulk materialsinthecomposite are: bone,7 GPa; HDPE, 0.65 GPa; hydroxyapatite, 80 GPa. (a) Plot the upper and lower bounds for the Young’s modulus of HDPEeHA composites against the volume fraction of reinforcement, f (from 0 to 1), together with the experimental data. (b) Which of the bounds is closer to the data for the particulate composite? Usethisboundasaguidetoextrapolatetheexperimentaldatato findthe volume fraction of hydroxyapatite needed to match the modulus of bone. Is this practical?

In science why is it important to have more than one piece of evidence to support your claim?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

It is important to have more than one piece of evidence to make sure that the evidence is actually evidence. Or in other words, that the evidence is proven true. With only one piece of evidence, you can't be fully sure if calculations were correct, if the source was trustworthy, etc.

Multiple evidence is kinda like double checking math problems. If you don't do it, you can't be 100% certain the answer is correct.

Match each part of Sammi's model to the bodily structure it represents. One bodily structure has already been labeled for you.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

corrugated cardboard tube - digestive tract

irregular surfaces on the corrugated tube - villi

pump - heart

Plastic tubing - blood vessels

Explanation:

The corrugated cardboard tube represents the digestive tract.  The give away was the presence of the irregular surfaces within the tubes. This is called the villi. The villi is responsible for the absorption of food after digestion into the body.

Irregular surfaces on the corrugated tube represent the villi. They are tiny hair-like structures that are in the small intestine, that are responsible for the absorption of food into the bloodstream.

The pump represents the heart. The heart is the only organ in the body that provides the pressure force that pushes the blood throughout the body. In this model, the pump will most likely be performing the same function.

The plastic tubings are meant to contain one form of fluid or the other. Judging from that, they can be said to represent the blood vessels. This is because they are connected to the heart and are meant to transport bodily fluids around the body
