Center of curvature in differential calculus?
Center of curvature = r(t) + (1/k)(unit inward Normal) k = curvature Unit inward normal = vector perpendicular to unit tangent r(t) = position vector
What is curvature of a lens?
The curvature of a lens refers to the amount of bending in the lens surface. A lens can have a convex curvature (outward bending) or a concave curvature (inward bending), which affects how it refracts light. Curvature is measured by the radius of curvature, which can determine the focal length and strength of the lens.
Does George Sampson have a spine disease?
He has a bone disease called Scheuermann's disease. It's a curvature of the spine.
What are canals that extend obliquely inward or horizontally from the bone surface and contain blood vessels and lymphatic vessels called?
Foramen
What is the medical term meaning abnormal increase in the outward curvature of the thoracic spine?
from the base of your neck to mid back is known as the thoracic spine and an excessive curvature of this region is called a kyphosis. Kyphosis looks like a "hump" when viewed from the side. Below the thoracic region is the lumbar region which is commonly known as the low back. Excessive inwards curvature of this region is called a hyperlordosis.
What is called the curvature in the water surface and what its cause?
The curvature in the water surface is called surface tension. It is caused by the attractive forces between water molecules, which pull the molecules at the surface inward, creating a sort of "skin" on the surface that resists external forces. This is what allows small objects, like paper clips, to float on water.
What is curvature convex of spine?
Curvature convexity of the spine refers to the direction in which the spine curves. A spine with a convex curvature means that the curve of the spine protrudes outward, while a concave curvature means the curve of the spine bends inward. It's important to monitor spinal curvature as abnormal curvatures can lead to various health issues.
Has a convex lateral surface called greater curvature and a concave medial surface called lesser curvature?
The stomach has a greater and lesser curvature. The greater curvature is the more lateral of the two.
Why does the thigh bone have to be extremely strong?
The thigh bone has to be extremely strong and has some curvature to it, because it has to support your body's weight.
Which anatomical plane does lordosis occur?
Lordosis is an exaggerated inward curvature of the lumbar spine, which primarily occurs in the sagittal plane. This means that when viewing the spine from the side, lordosis involves an increased concave curvature in the lumbar region.
What is an inward breath called?
An inward breath is called inhalation. It is the process of breathing in air into the lungs.
What are the four major types of postural disorder?
The four major types of postural disorder are kyphosis (excessive rounding of the upper back), lordosis (excessive inward curvature of the lower back), scoliosis (sideways curvature of the spine), and swayback (excessive curvature of the entire spine).
