Forces and Elasticity Quiz

Elasticity and Collisions

• Elastic property: A material’s ability to return to its original shape and size after the deforming force is removed is known as elasticity.
• Inelastic collision: During an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved; some energy is transformed into other forms, like heat or sound.
• Hooke's Law: This law establishes that the extension of a spring is directly proportional to the force applied, up to the material's elastic limit.

Deformation Limits

• Elastic limit: If a body is distorted beyond its elastic limit, it undergoes permanent deformation and will not return to its original shape or size.

Forces and Oscillation

• Restorative force: A restoring force acts in the direction opposite to the displacement of an oscillating body, helping it return to its equilibrium position.

Gallbladder Surgical Procedures

• Cholecystectomy: This surgical procedure involves the complete removal of the gallbladder, often performed due to gallstones or other gallbladder diseases.
• Cholecystostomy: This procedure creates an opening into the gallbladder to allow for drainage, typically used in cases where a cholecystectomy is too risky.

Gallbladder Conditions

• Common bile duct calculi: This condition involves the formation of calculi (stones) in the common bile duct, leading to potential blockages and complications.

Extrahepatic Biliary Tract Obstruction

• Causes of EHBO: Extrahepatic biliary tract obstruction can result from various factors, including gallstones, tumors, or strictures, hindering the bile duct's proper function.
