You have just lifted up a 10 lb weight by abducting your arm out to the side at your shoulder. You continue to hold the weight in that position for a few seconds. During this time the length of your muscle remains the same, while the muscle continues to vary the amount of tension or force needed to keep the weight from falling down. What type of contraction is going on while you are holding this weight in this position

Electrons got ejected out as if they were ping pong balls by the light particle (photon). Electrons were not moving initially. Then, it was moving later because of the light. a. What is the momentum of the electron initially (p=mv) Hint: Is it moving initially? b. Does the electron have momentum after being hit by the light particle? Hint: is it moving after being hit? c. What can you infer about light particles in momentum? Hint: where is the electron getting its velocity from?

Ocean waves are observed to travel along the water surface during a developing storm. A Coast Guard weather station observes that there is a vertical distance from high point to low point of 2.2 meters and a horizontal distance of 4 meters between adjacent crests. The waves splash into the station once every 4 seconds. Determine the frequency and the speed of these waves.Frequency= _________________________, speed = _______________________

What is the current theory about the formation of the solar system?ResponsesAbout 14 billion years ago, several supernova events scattered all the known elements throughout the galaxy. The magnetic elements were attracted to each other and formed the early celestial bodies that eventually became the planets of the solar system.About 14 billion years ago, several supernova events scattered all the known elements throughout the galaxy. The magnetic elements were attracted to each other and formed the early celestial bodies that eventually became the planets of the solar system.A big bang occurred in the solar system as a result of a fusion reaction. All the matter in the solar system that had been clumped together was shattered and sent flying. As new pieces of matter connected, all the celestial bodies of the solar system were formed.A big bang occurred in the solar system as a result of a fusion reaction.

The excess clouds and gases were used to form the various parts of the solar system.The solar system began as a cloud of dust and gas that condensed, forming a bulging middle and an outer disk. The bulging middle of the cloud became the sun, and the rest of the dust and gas formed the planets, orbiting the sun in the same plane.
