Answer:

Sensory transduction

Explanation:

The term sensory transduction refers to the conversion process where the sensory energy is converted in order to change the potential of a membrane.

In other words, it can defined as the process of energy conversion such that stimulus can be transmitted or received by the sensory receptors and the nervous system may initiate with the sensory receptors.

Transduction takes in all of the five receptors of the body. Thus skin is also one of the receptors and hence conversion of heat energy into impulses takes place with the help of thermo-sensory neuron.

A ball is thrown into the air with a vertical velocity of 50 m/s and a horizontal
daser333 [38]

\mathfrak{\huge{\pink{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Projectile Motion.

Since, here given that, vertical velocity= 50m/s

we know that u*sin(theta) = vertical velocity

so the time taken to reach the maximum height or the time of Ascent is equal to

T = Usin(theta) ÷ g, here g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we get as,

T = 50/9.8

T = 5.10 seconds

thus the time taken to reach max height is 5.10 seconds.

A sound system is designed to produce a 1.0W/m2 sound intensity over the surface of a hemisphere 20 m in radius. What acoustic p
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

2513.6 W

Explanation:

Acoustic power = sound intensity × area of hemisphere

Sound intensity = 1 W/m^2

Area of hemisphere = 2πr^2 = 2×3.142×20^2 = 2513.6 m^2

Acoustic power = 1 W/m^2 × 2513.6 m^2 = 2513.6 W

hodyreva [135]

Answer:Due to change in direction

Explanation:

Given

Initially train has traveled a 100 km in North and after exchanging some railroad cars, it traveled 100 in south.

The velocity of the train changes as it direction of motion changes. Velocity is the vector quantity which require direction and magnitude for its reperesentation.
