During a push-up, the elbow joint will mainly undergo extension as the arms straighten to push the body up. This motion is controlled by the triceps brachii muscles on the back of the upper arm.

When you push a crate with N across a M floor how much work is done?

The work done when pushing a crate with a force N across a distance M on a floor depends on the angle between the force and the direction of motion. If the force is applied in the same direction as motion, work done is N * M. If the force is applied at an angle, work done is N * M * cos(theta), where theta is the angle between the force and direction of motion.


What is an example of motion where work is done?

An example of motion where work is done is pushing a box across the floor. When you apply a force to move the box a certain distance, you are exerting energy to overcome friction and move the box, thus doing work on the box.


What is the difference between horizontal and vertical motion?

Horizontal motion refers to movement along the x-axis, while vertical motion refers to movement along the y-axis. In horizontal motion, the speed and acceleration are typically constant, while in vertical motion, the influence of gravity causes changes in speed and acceleration. Both types of motion can occur simultaneously in two-dimensional motion.


When force and motion are going in the same direction is work being done?

Yes, work is being done when force and motion are going in the same direction. Work is defined as the product of force applied in the direction of motion and the distance over which the force is applied. So, when force and motion are in the same direction, work is being done.


When force is perpendicular to the direction of motion is work done?

No. At least not by the force that's perpendicular to the motion. When you push a baby stroller (or a car), you do work, but the force of gravity, downward and perpendicular to the motion, doesn't.

What is standard counter height for pharmacy reception counter?

It will depend on the task to be done. Consideration must be given to the type of work to be performed, visibility, whether reading is a factor, reaching distance, and force requirement. Precision work (repacking medications) requires 37-43 in. from floor to elbow height, lighter work (preparing labels) 34-37 in. from floor below elbow height, and heavy work (making blister pack cards) 28-35 in. below elbow height. Elbow height is defined as the distance between the ground and the individual's elbow when the individual stands with his/her arms relaxed at his/her sides.

Can weight lifting cause tennis elbow?

Yes, weight lifting can cause tennis elbow if done with improper form or excessive weight, leading to strain on the tendons in the elbow.


What type of radiograph should be performed only by a veterinarian?

The type of radiograph that should be performed by only a veternarian is any on done of the spine or an elbow injuries. Also any pelvic inuries that may occur.


Would a tattoo on the elbow hurt much?

If it's on or around the elbow yes. I had mine done not unbearable but you'll feel it. Good luck.


What are the angle in extension of elbow joint?

In my particular case I am able to straighten my arm short of about 5 degrees to what it used to do and short of about 10 degrees when I try the other way that is I just miss out on being able to put my right hand on my right shoulder. I had the elbow replacement done about a year ago.

no


What can be done when the cartilage is gone?

I had this happen in my right elbow elbow. so I had the joint cut out and a new metal one put in to replace it. We cant replace cartilage yet. but they are working on it.


What axis of motion is the push-up done in?

a push up (shoulder horizontal abduction/adduction, elbow flexion/extension, and scapular retraction/protraction) is done around a vertical axes, in the transverse plane, while lying pronated. The axes of motion change relative to the body so a vertical axes will not always be perpendicular to the ground but more importantly traverse through the body from head to toe regardless of the body's relative position to earth.


Why do hand casts go up to your elbow?

That's done so that all the processes in the hand are immobilized during the time required for healing. Tug on a tendon in your forearm, and I move your hand up and down. Full arm casts help to prevent that accidental motion.
