Answer:

Concave mirror can form real and virtual images both

Convex mirror can form only virtual images

Explanation:

When object is placed beyond center of curvature of concave mirror then its image will form between center of curvature and focus.

This image will be real, inverted and diminished

Now when object is positioned between focus and center of curvature then its image will form beyond focus. So the image is real inverted and magnified.

Now when object is placed between focus and pole of the mirror then the image formed is virtual and behind the mirror. It is magnified image.

Now in case of convex mirror if object is positioned in front of mirror at any possible distance then the image is always virtual and diminished.

Plane mirrors and convex mirrors only produce virtual images. Only a concave mirror is capable of producing a real image and this only occurs if the object is located a distance greater than a focal length from the mirror's surface. And the upright images produced by plane mirrors have the same size as the object.

Nerve cells transmit electric signals through their long tubular axons. These signals propagate due to a sudden rush of Na+ ions

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$I = \frac{9.12x10^{-8} C}{0.007 s}= 1.30285 x10^{-5} \frac{C}{s}=1.30285 x10^{-5} A = 13.02 \mu A$

Explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

Number of Na+ ions $5.7 x10^{11} ions$

Each ion have a charge of +e and the crage of the electron is $1.6 x10^{-19}C$

The time is given $t = 7 ms$ if we convert this into seconds we got:

$t = 7ms * \frac{1s}{1000 ms}= 0.007s$

Now we can use the following formula given from the current passing thourhg a meter of nerve axon given by:

$Q = Ne$

Where N represent the number of ions, e the charge of the electron and Q the total charge

If we replace on this case we have this:

$Q= 5.7x10^{11} * (1.6 x10^{-19}C) = 9.12x10^{-8} C$

And from the general definition of current we know that:

$I =\frac{Q}{t}$

And since we know the total charge Q and the time we can replace:

$I = \frac{9.12x10^{-8} C}{0.007 s}= 1.30285 x10^{-5} \frac{C}{s}=1.30285 x10^{-5} A = 13.02 \mu A$

The current during the inflow charge in the meter axon for this case is $13.02 \mu A$
