The circumference of a circle is the Diameter multiplied by Pi, or in mathematical notation:

* C=πD (Circumference = the quantity of Pi multiplied by the Diameter) OR

* C=2πr (Circumference = the quantity of 2 multiplied by Pi multiplied by the Radius)

The radius of a circle with a circumference of 5 inches can be found as follows:

C=2πr

5 inches=2πr

5 inches/(2π)=r

Can the sacral vertebrae flex and extend?

Not really as they are fused into what is effectively one bone.

______________________

Answer by Puhlaa:

While a child the sacral vertebrae are joined by disks similar to those of the rest of the spine, giving the sacrum some flexibility. This becomes especially important for a child while learning to walk, as frequent falls on the bum could fracture a solid sacrum/coccyx. The sacral vertebrae begin to fuse at around 18 years of age, and are completely fused by 25-30 years of age. Thus, the above answer would indeed be correct if in reference to an adult older than 30. Otherwise, if in reference to a person under 25, indeed the sacral vertebrae would allow for some limited flexion and extension.

What is a ligament tear in the knee How long do you need for it to heal from the day it was torn if there was a pop Is the best treatment to have it held in place tied together until the pop is gone?

If you have a tear in a ligament it is called a sprain. Sprains come in different degrees depending on how much is torn. A mild sprain can be treated with RICE (Rest Ice Compression and Elevation).

If you heard a pop, then most likely you suffered a dislocation. That is more severe because it involves a forceful separation of a joint and more severe tearing of ligaments with possible damage to the joint capsule. I am not sure how you are keeping it tied together, but anytime there is a possibility of a dislocation or a break there is usually loss of function in the joint, or the nearest joint if it is a break.

The best thing to do if you hear a pop, since it could be a dislocation or a break, is to get it x-rayed and checked out by a doctor.
