The movement of the tectonic plates is caused by convection currents in Earth´s mantle.
Answer: A) convection currents in Earth´s mantle.
The angular speed can be solve using the formula:
w = v / r
where w is the angular speed
v is the linear velocity
r is the radius of the object
w = ( 5 m / s ) / ( 5 cm ) ( 1 m / 100 cm )
w = 100 per second
Answer:
0.01 m
Explanation:
Since the speed of light is 3.0×10^8 m/s
Use the equation,
Wavelength = speed ÷ frequency
Wavelength = 3.0×10^8 ÷ 3×10^10
Wavelength = 0.01m
Answer:
0.385 meters
Explanation:
Just remember this very simple equation:
velocity=(wavelength)*(frequency)
I always remember it as "Velma is Waving Frantically"
So, 125=(wavelength)*(325)
Therefore, wavelength=0.385 meters!
Hope this helped!
Answer: The correct option is B (The Young's modulus of women's ACLS is typically smaller than that of men's, resulting in more stress for the same amount of strain)
Explanation:
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the important ligaments found at the knee joint which helps to stabilise the joint. It connects the femur to the tibia bone at the knee joint.
Anterior cruciate ligament tear is one of the common knee joint injury which is seen in individuals( especially females) involved in sports( example soccer and basketball which involves sudden change in direction causing the knee to rotate inwards)
ACL tear occurs through both contact and non contact mechanisms. The contact mechanism of ACL injury occurs when force is directly applied at the lateral part of the knee while in non contact mechanism,tear occurs when the tibia is externally rotated on the planted foot.
Research has proven that women are prone to have ACL tear than men when competing in similar sports. This disparity exists due to structural differences that pose as risk factors. These includes
- the female ACL size is smaller than the male.
- the ACL of female has a lower modulus if elasticity( that is, less stiff) than in males leading to greater joint mobility than in the male.. therefore the option, (The Young's modulus of women's ACLS is typically smaller than that of men's, resulting in more stress for the same amount of strain) is correct.
