In which part of the ear is the sound wave converted into an electrical impulse?

1 answer:

5 0

The Cochlea is filled with a fluid that moves in response to the vibrations from the oval window. As the fluid moves, 25,000 nerve endings are set into motion. These nerve endings transform the vibrations into electrical impulses that then travel along the eighth cranial nerve (auditory nerve) to the brain.

Vitek1552 [10]

Mass of the object m = 25 kg

Coefficient of friction Uk = 0.15

Frictional force Ff = Uk x F => Ff = Uk x m x g

Ff = 0.15 x 25 x 9.8

Frictional Force Ff = 36.75 N

On a typical clear day, the atmospheric electric field points downward and has a magnitude of approximately 103 N/C. Compare the

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a) FE = 0.764FG

b) a = 2.30 m/s^2

Explanation:

a) To compare the gravitational and electric force over the particle you calculate the following ratio:

$\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{qE}{mg}$ (1)

FE: electric force

FG: gravitational force

q: charge of the particle = 1.6*10^-19 C

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

E: electric field = 103N/C

m: mass of the particle = 2.2*10^-15 g = 2.2*10^-18 kg

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

$\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)}{(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}\\\\\frac{F_E}{F_G}=0.764$

Then, the gravitational force is 0.764 times the electric force on the particle

The acceleration of the particle is obtained by using the second Newton law:

$F_E-F_G=ma\\\\a=\frac{qE-mg}{m}$

you replace the values of all variables:

$a=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)-(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}{2.2*10^{-18}kg}\\\\a=-2.30\frac{m}{s^2}$

hence, the acceleration of the particle is 2.30m/s^2, the minus sign means that the particle moves downward.

A bullet fired vertically at a velocity of 36m/s .after 45 the bullet hit the top of a bulid how height is a bulid?

zzz [600]

Answer:

The height of the building is 8,302.5 m

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of the projectile, u = 36 m/s

time of motion, t = 45 s

Let the upward direction of the bullet be negative,

The height of the building is calculated as;

$h = ut - \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = (36\times 45) - (\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times 45^2)\\\\h = 1620 - 9922.5\\\\h = -8,302.5 \ m\\\\The \ height \ of \ the \ building \ is \ 8,302.5 \ m$
