What's the difference between an axon and a dendrite

1 answer:

5 0

Dendrites are the fine branches from the cell body that receive incoming information from other neurons and transmit it to the cell body.
Axons on the other hand transmit information from the cell body to other neurons or to cells in glands and muscles. This would make a bit more sense if you take a look at a structure of the neuron.

a body dropped from a height reaches a velocity of 13m/s just before touching the ground. What is the initial height of the ball

SashulF [63]

Hi there!

We can use the following (derived) equation to solve for the final velocity given height:

vf = √2gh

We can rearrange to solve for height:

vf² = 2gh

vf²/2g = h

Plug in the given values (g = 9.81 m/s²)

(13)²/2(9.81) = 8.614 m

We can calculate time using the equation:

vf = vi + at, where:

vi = initial velocity (since dropped from rest, = 0 m/s)

a = acceleration (in this instance, due to gravity)

Plug in values:

13 = at

13/a = t

13/9.81 = 1.325 sec

State the Pascal's principle <br>

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Pascal's principle, also called Pascal's law, in fluid (gas or liquid) mechanics, statement that, in a fluid at rest in a closed container, a pressure change in one part is transmitted without loss to every portion of the fluid and to the walls of the container

An American Red Cross plane needs to drop emergency supplies to victims of a hurricane in a remote part of the world. The plane

Andreas93 [3]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Assume that air resistance is ignored.

Note:
The distance, h, of a falling object with initial vertical velocity of zero at time t is
h = (1/2)gt²
where
g = 9.8 m/s²

The initial vertical velocity of the supplies is 0 m/s.
It the time taken for the supplies to reach the ground is t, then
(50 m) = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)²

Hence obtain
t² = 50/4.9 = 10.2041
t = 3.1944 s

The horizontal distance traveled at a speed of 100 m/s is
d = (100 m/s)*(3.1944 s) = 319.44 m

Answer: 319.4 m (nearest tenth)
