The achilles tendon is subjected to a large tension stress that results in a strain of 6%. if the unloaded tendon is 10 cm long,

how much does it elongate as a result of this strain?
The answer is .6cm I need to understand the work to get here.

Answer: 0.6cm

Explanation:

Strain is defined as  how much an object can be stretched or deformed  when force is applied to it .  it measures the  fractional change of the object’s length when the object faces  tensional stress. It is calculated  by using the formulae

Strain =  ΔL/ L

where strain = 6%

L= Original length

ΔL= change in length

 6% = ΔL/ 10 cm

ΔL= 10cm X 0.06

ΔL=0.6cm

Ben walks 500 meters from his house to the corner store. He then walks back toward his house but stops to talk to a neighbor whe
spin [16.1K]
Average velocity =

      (displacement) / (time for the displacement)
and
      (direction of the displacement) .

Displacement =

      (distance from the start-point to the end-point)
and
      (direction from the start-point to the end-point)   .

When Ben is 200 meters from the corner store,
he is (500 - 200) = 300 meters from his house.

His displacement is

         300 meters in the direction
                             from his house to the neighbor .


His average velocity is

         (300/910) =  0.33 meters per second, in the
                               direction from his house to the neighbor .

How are types of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum defined?
Drupady [299]
It is defined by their wavelength. Different colors have different wavelengths. For example, radio waves have a really long wavelength, whereas gamma-rays have a very short wavelength.
