So, why can a properly executed karate kick break a concrete block without fracturing bones [16]? first, bone is a very strong m

aterial. its ultimate compressive strength is approximately 40 times larger than concrete. second, contact is made with the edge of the foot. this concentrates the force into a small area of the target and reduces the likelihood of bending a bone to the point of fracture. third, the collision with the target is essentially inelastic and extends over several milliseconds, so the peak force, though large, does not exceed the strength of the bone.

The circumference of an orbit for a toy on a string is 18 m and the centripetal force is 12 N. Does the centripetal force do any
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Work done is 0.

Explanation:

Given that,

The circumference of an orbit for a toy on a string is 18 m, r = 18 m

Centripetal force, F = 12 N

In the circular path, the centripetal force is always perpendicular to the motion of the object. Thus it makes an angle of 90 degrees with the force and displacement. Hence, we can say that the centripetal force does not do any work on the toy when it follows its orbit for one cycle.

Hemoglobin (Hb) is the O2-carrying protein in our blood. Unlike myoglobin, it has four sites allowing it to bind up to four O2 m
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Yes, the energy is not simply the sum of the individual binding energies at each site, it is the product of energy at each binding site of hemoglobin.

Explanation:

Myoglobin and hemoglobin are two different cells. Myoglobin binds only one oxygen while the hemoglobin has the ability to binds four oxygen atoms at its four sides. Myoglobin present in muscle tissue only while hemoglobin is present in the whole body. Oxyhemoglobin is formed when oxygen binds with hemoglobin cell. This oxygen is take to all cells and energy is released due to the breakdown of glucose molecules with this oxygen.

A stretched string has a mass per unit length of 5.40 g/cm and a tension of 17.5 N. A sinusoidal wave on this string has an ampl
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Part a)

y_m = 0.157 mm

part b)

k = 101.8 rad/m

Part c)

\omega = 579.3 rad/s

Part d)

here since wave is moving in negative direction so the sign of \omega must be positive

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of wave in string is given by

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{m/L}}

so we have

T = 17.5 N

m/L = 5.4 g/cm = 0.54 kg/m

now we have

v = \sqrt{\frac{17.5}{0.54}}

v = 5.69 m/s

now we have

Part a)

y_m = amplitude of wave

y_m = 0.157 mm

part b)

k = \frac{\omega}{v}

here we know that

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi(92.2) = 579.3 rad/s

so we  have

k = \frac{579.3}{5.69}

k = 101.8 rad/m

Part c)

\omega = 579.3 rad/s

Part d)

here since wave is moving in negative direction so the sign of \omega must be positive
