tailbone. 1. Orthopedists determine the degree of a scoliotic curve by measuring with the Cobb angle. 2. Lines are drawn on the x-ray of the spine parallel to the highest and lowest vertebrate in the curve. 3. Then‚ a line is drawn vertical to those two lines and the angle where they intersect is the degree of the curve. 4. If the perpendicular lines would be parallel verticals and the Cobb angle would be zero‚ then the spine is straight. B. Although scoliosis is a serious matter depending

by a concave mirror‚ then it would converge at the focal point! When a ray of light is incident on a polished surface‚ it is reflected in such a way that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. A ray through the centre of curvature of a concave mirror is reflected back through the same path. This is because it is at an angle of 90 degrees. The radius of curvature is the straight line from the centre of curvature‚ to the arc of the mirror. The focal length of a concave mirror is

conducted on the physical force naturally involved and the biomechanics that are involved when one is shooting a basket ball. There are positions that work out the best result during the shooting time. They work best due to the force exerted and the angle and tactic used. All these concepts rely on the physical positions and energy exertion areas that are employed. From mid range to long range activities in basketball shooting‚ there are six major points to be considered in this coursework. When the

PVSyst TUTORIAL STAND ALONE SOLAR PV SYSTEM What is a stand alone solar system? This is a type of system which is not connected to electric grid. We have a PV array to convert sunlight into electricity and then we store this energy in a battery as chemical energy. This stored energy is then utilized when needed. This system is also known as off-grid system. What are the components of stand alone system? We will take a look at the processes involved. We have to convert sunlight into electricity

Femur and knee The difference in the Femur between hominids and apes is what in many cases defines whether early ancestors were bipedal or quadruped. Apes rotate their pelvis toward the side every time they take a step meaning that their femur is straight. Human’s femur angles inward and is also very long allowing us to be more efficient
