Define neuron and nervecell​

Physics
2 answers:
san4es73 [151]3 years ago

Answer: Hi!

A neuron is a basic working unit of the brain. Neurons are special cells designed to transfer information to other nerve, muscle, or gland cells. They are pretty cool - looking too! (A slightly irregular circular shape with branches reaching out from all sides.) A neuron is a nerve cell. Nerve cells are the way of communication in the nervous system.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Explanation:

The basic unit of communication in the nervous system is the nerve cell (neuron).  Each nerve cell consists of the cell body, which includes the nucleus, a major branching fiber (axon) and numerous smaller branching fibers (dendrites).

An airplane flying at an altitude of 6 miles passes directly over a radar antenna. When the airplane is 10 miles away (s = 10),
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

altitude of the Plane h=6\ miles

When Airplane is s=10\ miles away

Distance is changing at the rate of \frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}=290\ mph

From diagram we can write as

h^2+x^2=s^2

differentiate above equation w.r.t time

2h\frac{\mathrm{d} h}{\mathrm{d} t}+2x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=2s\frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}

as altitude is not changing therefore \frac{\mathrm{d} h}{\mathrm{d} t}=0

0+x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=s\frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}

at s=10\ miles\ and\ h=6\ miles

substitute the value we get x=\sqrt{10^2-6^2}=8\ miles

8\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=10\times 290

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=362.5\ mph

If the work done is 360 J, and the force used to do the work is applied over a distance of 12 m, what is the value of the force
hoa [83]
The formula for work is W=Fdcos\theta. Plugging in the numbers, you get: 
360=F(12)cos(0)
F= \frac{360}{12}
The answer is 30 N.

How does an electrometer differ from a voltmeter? What is meant by an electrical ground? What must you do before each measuremen
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

n an electrometer, it is built in such a way that its resistance in parallel is extremely high

Ground in a circuit is a reference point from which voltages are measured

all the instruments must be grounded and we must ground ourselves

Explanation:

When you build a voltmeter you have a resistance in parallel with the galvanometer, therefore when measuring the voltage of a circuit, so that there is no effect (load effect) by the voltmeter, a resistance must be much greater than the resistance where it is is measuring.

In an electrometer, it is built in such a way that its resistance in parallel is extremely high in the order of 10¹²Ω, so its load effect is very small and can be measured with high resistance mu

Electric ground in home and industrial installations is a protection system consisting of a metal piece connected to a buried ground electrode.

Ground in a circuit is a reference point from which voltages are measured and is common to all parts of the circuit

In an experiment where an electrometer is used, all the instruments must be grounded and we must ground ourselves, since it must be an instrument where very small voltages are measured at high impedances.
