WHAT MOTION WILL OCCUR AT THE ELBOW WHEN A PUSH UP FROM THE FLOOR IS DONE?

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 your chair the floor resists the movement with what energy?

The floor resists the movement with kinetic friction energy which arises due to the interaction between the surfaces of the chair and the floor as they move relative to each other. This energy opposes the motion of the chair, creating the resistance you feel when pushing it.


What energy makes a ball roll across the floor?

The kinetic energy of the ball in motion allows it to roll across the floor. As the ball is pushed or dropped, this kinetic energy is transferred to the ball's rotational motion, causing it to roll forward. Friction between the ball and the floor also plays a role in its movement.


What causes tsunami and earthquakes in Japan?

Earthquakes in Japan are caused by the movement of tectonic plates. A tsunami is a large ocean wave that is caused by sudden motion on the ocean floor which can be triggered by earthquakes.


What is Elbow flexed at 90 degrees rotating forearm so that palm is facing the floor?

If the elbow is flexed, the palm of the hand can not face the floor. If the elbow is at 90 degrees that is what flexion is. If you rotate the forearm, the palm will face anteriorly. If you don't, the palm will face posteriorly. The only way to have the palm face the floor is for the forearm to be extended and the forearm pronated.


What motion of the sea floor is responsible for the formation of the mid ridge Atlantic ridge's rift valley?

The sea floor motion responsible for the formation of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge's rift valley is divergent plate boundary movement. As two tectonic plates move apart, magma rises to fill the gap, creating new oceanic crust. This process forms the rift valley along the center of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.


Can a slinky walk on the floor?

Yes, a slinky can "walk" on the floor by creating a wave-like movement with its coils. When pushed or put on an incline, the force of gravity propels the slinky forward by moving one coil at a time. This motion is known as "slinky walking."


Can a club President present a motion on the floor?

Yes. According to Roberts Rules of Order they can, but not while they are presiding in a meeting. They can some one to do the motion for them and another second the motion. It should, then, be opened to the floor for discussion and either a vote taken or tabled for future meetings. This also requires a motion and second from the floor and then a vote.


If you drop a sponge on the floor, is the sponge dirty or is the floor clean?

To be completely honest it depends on if your floor is dirty or not. If your floor is really dirty then the sponge is dirty. but in order for your floor to be clean when u 'drop' a sponge you have to apply elbow grease to clean it.

Define motion with a suitable example?

Motion is the displacement of mass or energy from one location to another.Example: When I leave my socks on the floor at night and find them in the laundry bag in the morning,I am justified in inferring that motion has taken place at some time during the night.The same phenomenon is often referred to as "movement", especially among the bourgeouisie.
