The myelin sheath is the structure some neurons have that increases conduction speed.

<h3>What is a neuron?</h3>

Information is transmitted via neurons. They communicate between various brain regions and between the brain and the rest of the nervous system through electrical impulses and chemical signals.

As we know,

An insulating layer of fatty tissue called the myelin sheath surrounds the axon of a neuron and speeds up the electrical signal transmission.

Thus, the myelin sheath is the structure some neurons have that increases conduction speed.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Minimum capacitance = 200 μF

Explanation:

From image B attached, we can calculate the current flowing through the capacitors.

Thus;

Since V=IR; I = V/R = 5/500 = 0.01 A

Maximum charge in voltage is from 5V to 4.9V. Thus, each capacitor will have 2.5V. Hence, change in voltage(Δv) for each capacitor will be ; Δv = 0.05 V

So minimum capacitance will be determined from;

i(t) = C(dv/dt)

So, C = i(t)(Δt/Δv) = 0.01[0.001/0.05]

C = 0.01 x 0.0002 = 200 x 10^(-6) F = 200 μF

What type of wave is produced when the frequency of a visible light wave is increased
SIZIF [17.4K]

-- If the frequency of a wave is too high for our eyes to detect it ... but not <u>too too</u> high ... we call it an <em>ultraviolet </em>wave.

-- If the wave's frequency is even higher than that, we call it an <em>X-ray</em> wave.

-- If the wave's frequency is even higher than that, we call it a <em>Gamma Ray </em>wave.

How do amps correlate to brightness?
Nezavi [6.7K]
The watts determine the brightness. Watt is the unit of Power. And Power is equal to Voltage x Amps (current). So both the current and voltage determine the brightness.

A 0.954-kg toy car is powered by three D cells (4.50 V total) connected directly to a small DC motor. The car has an effective e
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

0.06 A

Explanation:

We have given mass =0.954 kg

velocity =1.27 m/sec

efficiency =0.361 the output kinetic energy of the motor KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.954\times 1.27^2=0.769\ J

Efficiency =0.361

so input to the motor = output/efficiency

so input to the motor = \frac{0.769}{0.361}=2.1301

we know that P=\frac{E}{T} where E is energy and T is time so P=\frac{2.1301}{7.88}=0.2703W

We know that power P=VI we have given V=4.5 VOLT

So current I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{0.2703}{4.5}=0.06 A
