What grade of sprain is a completely torn ligament?

1 answer:

6 0

Grade 1: Stretching or slight tearing of the ligament with mild tenderness, swelling and stiffness. The ankle feels stable and it is usually possible to walk with minimal pain.

Grade 2: A more severe sprain, but incomplete tear with moderate pain, swelling and bruising. Although it feels somewhat stable, the damaged areas are tender to the touch and walking is painful.

Grade 3: This is a complete tear of the affected ligament(s) with severe swelling and bruising. The ankle is unstable and walking is likely not possible because the ankle gives out and there is intense pain.

sdas [7]

Answer:

The vertical distance is $d = \frac{2}{k} *[mg + f]$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the cylinder is m

The kinetic frictional force is f

Generally from the work energy theorem

$E = P + W_f$

Here E the the energy of the spring which is increasing and this is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{1}{2} * k * d^2$

Here k is the spring constant

P is the potential energy of the cylinder which is mathematically represented as

$P = mgd$

And

$W_f$ is the workdone by friction which is mathematically represented as

$W_f = f * d$

$\frac{1}{2} * k * d^2 = mgd + f * d$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * k * d^2 = d[mg + f ]$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * k * d = [mg + f ]$

=> $d = \frac{2}{k} *[mg + f]$

The kinetic energy of a book on a shelf is equal to the work done to lift the book to the shelf is false. The kinetic energy on the shelf is zero because it is not in action.

slava [35]

It takes more energy to remove the second electron from a lithium atom than it does to remove the fourth electron from a carbon atom because its inner core e, not valence e. C's 4th removed e is still a valence e. And also <span>because more nuclear charge acting on the second electron, it is more close to the nucleus, thus the the protons attract it more than the 4th electron.</span>
