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.
Answer: smaller
Ultraviolet radiation has broad range of wavelengths, higher
number means greater risk of exposure to UV rays that can be dangerous to skin
cells. Sunlight is the main source of electromagnetic radiation and it is
transmitted in different wavelengths known as electromagnetic spectrum. This spectrum
is divided into several regions in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing
energy and frequency. UV radiation has frequency and energy that is higher than purple
light or violet radiation and the wavelength of ultraviolet radiation
is smaller than violet radiation.

Answer:
h = height of the hotel room from the ground floor = 237.4m
Explanation:
Change in Potential Energy of tourist = ΔPE = PE2 – PE1 = mgh
PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the ground floor
PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the top (hotel room)
Given
PE1 = − 2.01 × 10⁵ J
PE2 = 0J
PE2 – PE1 = mgh
0 – (− 2.01 × 10⁵ J) = mgh
2.01 × 10⁵ J = 86.4×9.8×h
h = 2.01 × 10⁵/(86.4×9.8) = 237.4m
