1) If v = d/t, solve for t. t =

2) 8/R = 4/T. Solve for T. T =

3) Define center of mass.

4) When is an object balanced?

5) There is a 4-gram mass on the left side of a balance 20 centimeters from the center. There is a 5-gram mass on the right side of the balance. How far from center is the mass on the right to keep the system balanced?

6) There is a 4-gram mass on the left side of a balance,10 centimeters from the center. There is a 5 gram mass also on the left side of the balance, 20 centimeters from the center. How far must a 20-gram mass be from center on the right side to keep the system balanced?

9) What is the technical term for a push or a pull?

10) Which type of stress is represented in this drawing?

11) Name three ways to make a material stronger.

12) Label the parts on this cross section of a bone:

bone matrix

marrow membranous sheath

13) What is a compound fracture?

14) What do ligaments do?

15) What type of joint is your hip?

16) In a second class lever the ______is in the middle.

17) You want to lift a large boulder that weighs 1000 kg. You have a 3 meter bar to use as a class 1 lever. If you set up the bar so that the boulder is 0.2 meters from the fulcrum, and you weigh 100 kg, what is the minimum distance you can be from the fulcrum on the other side to move the boulder? Ignore the weight of the bar.

18) What class of lever is your elbow when you straighten your arm?

19) Why is a small animal less likely to be injured in a long fall than a large animal?

20) In physiology, what does "form follows function" mean?

21) What does this graph tell you about the relationship between force and distance? Distance

22) A human femur can withstand about 55 kg/cm2 before it breaks. A typical human femur is about 2 cm in diameter (1 cm in radius), so the cross-sectional area is about 3 cm2. A typical human weighs about 70 kg, so the ratio of mass to cross-sectional area is 70 kg/3 cm2 (standing on one leg). If a giant human was 3 times as big in all three dimensions (height, width, thickness), would one of their femurs be strong enough to hold their weight? What would the ratio of mass to cross-sectional area be? Show your work.
