unobstructed through low density tissues and being obstructed by high density tissues. Goniometers are a tool used to measure the range of motion of a joint. This helps identify the plane of movement through which a bony landmark can be moved. This can be used to determine possible performance, as well as provided information about pathologies if the range of a motion of a joint is significantly different then known normality standards. III. Mechanical basis for human movement 1.…
For ASB tenderness, 8 articles studying 1164 patients were included. The sensitivity was relatively homogeneous, with a range between 0.87 and 1.00. The specificity ranged between 0.03 and 0.98 indicating high heterogeneity. For LTC, 8 reports studying 961 patients were included. The test had heterogeneous results for sensitivity (range between 0.48 and 1.00) and specificity (range between 0.22 and 0.97) (table 2). Because of the high heterogeneity we refrained…
must be corresponded to the O-H stretch of the phenol with a literature value that ranges from 3550-3500 cm-1 (Figure 5). The variance between the observed value, and the expected value can be due to the MHz of the IR spectrometer used. The second peak observed was a weak-medium, sharp and narrow at 1586.79 cm-1. This peak was in agreement with the aromatic C=C stretching of a phenol with a literature value that ranges from 1600-1430 cm-1 (Figure 5). The third peak observed was a medium, sharp…

because the friction force is applied for a longer amount of time. When someone tries to hit a tennis ball with a lot of speed there is a small “acceptance window”. The acceptance window is a range of angles where the ball is able to clear the net and remain inside of the service box. In order to increase this range, many tennis players give the ball more topspin and strike the ball as high off the ground as possible. When a player gives the ball topspin it creates an area of low pressure…
