Why is a pulley important?
A pulley, is a mechanism composed of a wheel on an axle that may have a groove between two flanges around its circumference. A rope, cable, belt, or chain usually runs over the wheel and inside the groove, if present. Pulleys are important and useful because its used to change the direction of an applied force, transmit rotational motion, or realize a mechanical advantage.
When sheave groove is larger than the diameter of rope what will happen?
A sheave groove, such as the groove in a pulley, allows a rope or wire to pass through unhindered by friction or obstructions. The correct size sheave is required to minimize wear and tear on the rope or wire. When grooves become overly worn or are too large, they may allow excessive movement, which stresses the rope and reduces its life. A groove that is too small will compress the rope, breaking fibers or strands, and reducing the lifespan.
What can a pulley do?
its not to push or pull an object its a simple machine made from a grooved wheel with a rope or cable wrapped around the groove.
Is a grooved wheel with a rope or chain running through the groove is a pulley?
Yes. It is a pulley.
What prevents the rope from slipping off the wheel of the pulley?
The groove in the wheel causes the rope or cable to ride on the wheel without slipping off.
What is the name of the groove found between the greater and lesser tubercles?
Intertubercular groove of humerus
How is the long head of the biceps brachii related to the interubercular bicipital groove?
The intertubercular bicipital groove is a sulcus formed by the greater and lesser tubercles of the humerus. The tendon of the long head of the biceps muscle passes through this groove and is held in place by a transverse ligament.
What is the insertion of latissimus dorsi?
The insertion of the latissimus dorsi is the humerus.
Where is the intertubercular sulcus?
The intertubercular sulcus, also known as the bicipital groove, is located on the anterior aspect of the humerus bone. It runs between the greater and lesser tubercles of the humerus and serves as a site of attachment for the long head of the biceps muscle.
Is groove of the humerus is origin of biceps muscle?
yes
What bone is inter tubercular groove found on?
Humerus
When palpation of which bony landmark helps locate the ulnar nerve?
In the groove between the head of the ulna and the olecranon process at the elbow; at the medial epicondyle of the humerus.
What does the latissimus dorsi insert to?
on the intertubercular groove of the humerus just lateral to pectoralis major
What is the ulnar groove?
The ulnar groove also known as the ulnar sulcus is a slight depression found at the inferior, posterior, medial side of the humerus bone. The ulnar nerve runs downwards in the ulnar groove to go to the ulna.
What large muscle originates along the sternum and inserts onto the humerus?
You have the pectoralis major muscle in the chest wall. It arise from the sternum and the clavicle. It is inserted on the lateral part of the bicipital groove.
What mucsle is the one targeted in a pull-up?
Latissimus dorsi. This is the large and flat muscle of the back. It is inserted in the groove on the humerus between the insertions of teres major and pectoralis major muscles. Jokingly called as lady between two majors.
What muscles are attached to the lateral side of the bicipital groove?
To the best of my knowledge, three muscles attach to the bicipital groove of the Humerus: The Latissimus Dorsi, the Pectoralis Major and the Teres major. Marcel Fromond NMT Student
