Nerve impulses in a human body travel at a speed of about 100 m/s. Suppose a man accidentally stubs his toe. About how much time
1 answer:
Answer:
t = 0.018 s
Explanation:
given,
nerve impulse in human body travel at a speed of = 100 m/s
height of the man = 1.80 m
time taken by the impulse to travel from foot to brain = ?
distance = speed × time
1.80 = 100 × t
t =
t = 0.018 s
hence, the time taken by the nerve to reach brain from toe is 0.018 s

Answer:
Speed= 6cm/s and velocity= 6cm/s in the negative direction
Explanation:
the change in position is from 45cm to 27 cm (moving towards the negative x direction)
And the change in time:
Now we must define the difference between speed and velocity:
Speed is a scalar quantity, which means that it is a number. Velocity is also a number but you must also indicate the direction of the movement.
Thus, the speed is:
An the velocity is:
6cm/s in the negative direction
To solve this problem we will use the related concepts in Newtonian laws that describe the force of gravitational attraction. We will use the given value and then we will obtain the proportion of the new force depending on the Radius. From there we will observe how much the force of attraction increases in the new distance.
Planet gravitational force
Distance between planet and star
Gravitational force is
Applying the new distance,
Replacing with the previous force,
Replacing our values
Therefore the magnitude of the force on the star due to the planet is
