The neurons that select a particular motor program are the __________.

Physics
1 answer:
Dmitry [639]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

upper motor neurons in the premotor cortex

Explanation:

Motor neurons are a type of nervous system cells that are located in the brain  and in the spinal cord. They have the function of producing the stimuli that cause the contraction of the different muscle groups of the organism. They are therefore essential for daily activities that require muscle contraction: walking, talking, moving hands and in general all body movements.

An object accelerates 3 m/s2 , when a force of 6 N acts on it. What is the object’s mass
telo118 [61]

Answer:

<h2>2 kg</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{6}{3}  \\  = 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

Two blocks, joined by a string, have masses of 6.0 and 9.0 kg. They rest on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A second string,
Lynna [10]

Answer:

T= 27 N

Explanation:

Assuming that the string joining both masses is massless  and inextensible, both masses accelerate at the same rate.

So, we can treat to both masses as a single system, and apply Newton's 2nd Law to both masses.

In this way, we can get the value of the acceleration without taking into account the tension in the string, as it is an internal force (actually a action-reaction pair).

Newton's 2nd law is a vector equation, so we can decompose the forces along perpendicular axis in order to convert it in two algebraic equations.

We can choose one axis as parallel to the horizontal surface (we call it x-axis, being the positive direction the one of  the movement of the blocks due to the horizontal force applied to the 6.0 kg block), and the other, perpendicular to it, so it is vertical (we call y-axis, being the upward direction the positive one).

Taking into account the forces acting  on both masses, we can write both equations as follows:

Fy = N- (m₁+m₂)*g = 0 (as there is no movement in the vertical direction)

Fx = Fh = (m₁ + m₂) * a ⇒ 45 N = 15.0 kg * a

⇒ a = 45 N / 15.0 kg = 3 m/s²

Now, in order to get the value of the tension T, we can choose as our system, to any mass, and apply Newton's 2nd Law again.

If we choose to the mass of 6.0 kg, in the horizontal direction, there are two forces acting on it, in opposite directions: the  horizontal applied force of 45 N, and the tension in the string that join both masses.

The difference of both forces, must be equal to the mass (of this block only) times the acceleration, as follows:

F- T = m₂* a ⇒ 45 N - T = 6.0 kg * 3 m/s²

⇒ T = 45 N -18 N = 27 N

We could have arrived to the same result taking the 9.0 Kg as our system, as the only force acting in the horizontal direction is just the tension in the string that we are trying to find out, as follows:

F = m₁*a = 9.0 kg* 3 m/s² = 27 N

Interactive Solution 6.39 presents a model for solving this problem. A slingshot fires a pebble from the top of a building at a
mariarad [96]

(a) 29.8 m/s

To solve this problem, we start by analyze the vertical motion first. This is a free fall motion, so we can use the following suvat equation:

v_y^2 - u_y^2 = 2as

where, taking upward as positive direction:

v_y is the final vertical velocity

u_y = 0 is the initial vertical velocity (zero because the pebble is launched horizontally)

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

s = -25.0 m is the displacement

Solving for vy,

v_y = \sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{0+2(-9.8)(-25)}=-22.1 m/s (downward, so we take the negative solution)

The pebble also have a horizontal component of the velocity, which remains constant during the whole motion, so it is

v_x = 20.0 m/s

So, the final speed of the pebble as it strikes the ground is

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{20.0^2+(-22.1)^2}=29.8 m/s

(b) 29.8 m/s

In this case, the pebble is launched straight up, so its initial vertical velocity is

u_y = 20.0 m/s

So we can find the final vertical velocity using the same suvat equation as before:

v_y^2 - u_y^2 = 2as

v_y = \sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{(20.0)^2+2(-9.8)(-25)}=-29.8 m/s (downward, so we take the negative solution)

The horizontal speed instead is zero, since the pebble is initially launched vertically, so the final speed is just equal to the magnitude of the vertical velocity:

v = 29.8 m/s

(c) 29.8 m/s

This case is similarly to the previous one: the only difference here is that the pebble is launched straight down instead than up, therefore

u_y = -20.0 m/s

Using again the same suvat equation:

v_y^2 - u_y^2 = 2as

v_y = \sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{(-20.0)^2+2(-9.8)(-25)}=-29.8 m/s (downward, so we take the negative solution)

As before, the horizontal speed instead is zero, since the pebble is initially launched vertically, so the final speed is just equal to the magnitude of the vertical velocity:

v = 29.8 m/s

We notice that the final value of the speed is always the same in all the three parts, so it does not depend on the direction of launching. This is due to the law of conservation of energy: in fact, the initial mechanical energy of the pebble (kinetic+potential) is the same in all three cases (because the height h does not change, and the speed v does not change either), and the kinetic energy gained during the fall is also the same (since the pebble falls the same distance in all 3 cases), therefore the final speed must also be the same.

A 878-kg (1940 lb) dragster, starting from rest, attains a speed of 25.9 m/s (57.9 mph) in 0.62 s. (a) Find the average accelera
salantis [7]

Answer:

41.8m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the dragster starts from rest, initial velocity (u) = 0m/s, final velocity (v) = 25.9m/s, time (t) = 0.62s

From the equations of motion, v = u + at

a = (v - u)/t = (25.9 - 0)/0.62 = 25.9/0.62 = 41.8m/s^2
