A wave of sound proceeds through the auditory canal to the inner ear where receptor neurons on the basilar membrane are stimulat

ed. The neurons send a message to the brain. When the brain receives the message, the result is a person thinking, "That sounds like my mom calling me for dinner." What has taken place?

Answer:

Sensation and perception

Explanation:

When the sound waves pass through the auditory canal where the receptor neurons are stimulated. This description is an explanation of sensation. Sensation means that the person has detected a stimulus.

After the person receives the signal in the brain and thinks "That sounds like my mom calling me for dinner" this indicates that the person has perceived a stimulus. Perception is the interpretation of stimulus which is seen in the case here.

The strength of the electric field at a certain distance from a point charge is represented by E. What is the strength of the el
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Using Coulomb's law equation

Force of the charge = k qQ /d²

and E = F/ q

substitute for F

E = ( K Qq/ d² ) / q

q cancel q

E = KQ / d²

so twice  the distance of the from the point charge will lead to the E ( electric field ) decrease by a 4 = E/4. E is inversely proportional to d²

A spaceprobe has an 29.0 m length when measured at rest. What length
elixir [45]

Answer:

The observer sees the space-probe 9.055m long.

Explanation:

Let L_0 be the length of the space-probe when measured at rest, and L be its length as observed by an observer moving at velocity v, then

(1).\: \: L = L_0\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2} }

Now, we know that L_0 = 29.0m and v = 0.95c, and putting these into (1) we get:

L = 29\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(0.95c)^2}{c^2} }

L = 29\sqrt{1-0.95^2 }

\boxed{L = 9.055m}

Thus, an observer moving at 0.95c observes the space-probe to be 9.055m long.

If the net external force acting on a system is zero , then the total momentum of the system is zero
Neporo4naja [7]
If net external force acting on the system is zero, momentum is conserved. That means, initial and final momentum are same → total momentum of the system is zero.
