What is the major axis for bending?
In a beam or length of material, we generally consider the longitudinal axis as the major axis for bending. But torsion will bend the material from the vertical, will twist it around that longitudinal axis. And lateral forces will bend the material across it axis of latitude.
Fracture that cut across the bone at right angles to its long axis is called?
transverse
Which plane is Perpendicular to the longitudinal axis?
The transverse plane is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
A fracture or break in a bone that runs parallel with the bone is known as a?
longitudinal fracture
What is the Definition of longitudinal axis?
longitudinal axis: An axis along the lengthwise direction of the figure or body, usually passing through its center of gravity.
What is the axis where the airplane yaws?
It's longitudinal axis
What is a greenstick fracture?
A greenstick fracture is afracture in a young, soft bone in which the bone bends and partially breaks. The bones become harder(calcified) and more brittle with age, it occurs almost exclusively during infancy and childhood when their bones are soft. The name is by analogy with green wood which similarly breaks on the outside when bent. There are three basic forms of greenstick fracture. In the first a transverse fracture occurs in the cortex, extends into the midportion of the bone and becomes oriented along the longitudinal axis of the bone without disrupting the opposite cortex. The second form is a torus or buckling fracture, caused by impaction. The third is a bow fracture in which the bone becomes curved along its longitudinal axis.

What fracture cracks a bone in half?
This is either a greenstick fracture or a longitudinal fracture depending upon exactly how the bone breaks.

Is pronation a movement around the longitudinal axis?
No, pronation is not a movement around the longitudinal axis. Pronation refers to the inward rotation of the forearm or foot. Rotation around the longitudinal axis would involve spinning or twisting along the length of the body.
A bone fracture perpendicular to the bone's axis is called what?
transverse fracture
Movement around a longitudinal axis is?
Rotation
