Irregular Bones

An irregular bone is one that does not have any easily characterized shape and therefore does not fit any other classification. These bones tend to have more complex shapes, like the vertebrae that support the spinal cord and protect it from compressive forces. Many facial bones, particularly the ones containing sinuses, are classified as irregular bones.
Sesamoid Bones

A sesamoid bone is a small, round bone that, as the name suggests, is shaped like a sesame seed. These bones form in tendons (the sheaths of tissue that connect bones to muscles) where a great deal of pressure is generated in a joint. The sesamoid bones protect tendons by helping them overcome compressive forces. Sesamoid bones vary in number and placement from person to person but are typically found in tendons associated with the feet, hands, and knees. The patellae (singular = patella) are the only sesamoid bones found in common with every person. [link] reviews bone classifications with their associated features, functions, and examples.

One complete wave passes a putrefying pile of poached pickerel in 0.50 seconds. The piled pickerel protrude 20 cm along the beac
Ad libitum [116K]
If the wave passes the putrefying pile of a poached pickerel in 0.5 seconds, then the wave has a period of 0.5s. 

But we say that if F=1/T,
where F⇒frequency,
          T⇒period.

F=1/0.5
  = 2Hz

velocity of the wave = distance/time taken
                                = (20÷100)/0.5
                                = 0.2÷0.5
                                = 2/5

Now form the wave equation,
V=λF 
Where V ⇒ velocity of the wave.
             λ⇒wavelength of the wave.
       
So, λ=V/F

    λ = 2/5 ÷ 2
       =2/5 ×1/2
       = 2/10
       =0.2 m

The wavelength in cm is, 0.2×100 = 20 cm.

A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 g bullet, traveling horizontally, strikes the block and becomes embed
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

A. <u>200m/s</u>

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum expressed as;

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses of the object

u1 and u2 are the respective velocities

v is the common velocity

Given

m1 = 1.2kg

u1 = 0m/s (block is a stationary object)

m2 = 50g= 0.05kg

u2 = ?

v = 8.0m/s

Substitute the values into the formula and get u2 (speed of the bullet before hitting the block)

1.2(0)+0.05u2 = (1.2 + 0.05)(8)

0.05u2 = 1.25(8)

0.05u2 = 10

u2 = 10/0.05

u2 = 200m/s

Hence the speed of the bullet before it hit the block is <u>200m/s</u>
