Answer:
Tendons connect muscle to bone. These tough, yet flexible, bands of fibrous tissue attach the skeletal muscles to the bones they move. Essentially, tendons enable you to move; think of them as intermediaries between muscles and bones.
Hope this helps! (:
Answer:
D. If a home were wired in series, every light and appliance would have to be turned on in order for any light or appliance to work.
Explanation:
In a series circuit, all the appliances are connected on the same branch of the circuit, one after the other. This means that the current flowing throught them is the same. However, this means also that if one of the appliance is turned off (so, its switch is open), that appliance breaks the circuit, so the current can no longer flow through the other appliances either.
On the contrary, when the appliances are connected in parallel, they are connected in different branches, so if one of them is switched off, the other branches continue working unaffacted by it.
Answer:
Explanation:
This is a recoil problem, which is just another application of the Law of Momentum Conservation. The equation for us is:
which, in words, is
The momentum of the astronaut plus the momentum of the piece of equipment before the equipment is thrown has to be equal to the momentum of all that same stuff after the equipment is thrown. Filling in:
![[(90.0)(0)+(.50)(0)]_b=[(90.0)(v)+(.50)(-4.0)]_a](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%2890.0%29%280%29%2B%28.50%29%280%29%5D_b%3D%5B%2890.0%29%28v%29%2B%28.50%29%28-4.0%29%5D_a)
Obviously, on the left side of the equation, nothing is moving so the whole left side equals 0. Doing the math on the right and paying specific attention to the sig fig's here (notice, I added a 0 after the 4 in the velocity value so our sig fig's are 2 instead of just 1. 1 is useless in most applications).
0 = 90.0v - 2.0 and
2.0 = 90.0v so
v = .022 m/s This is the rate at which he is moving TOWARDS the ship (negative was moving away from the ship, as indicated by the - in the problem). Now we can use the d = rt equation to find out how long this process will take him if he wants to reach his ship before he dies.
12 = .022t and
t = 550 seconds, which is the same thing as 9.2 minutes
