The nervous system has three general functions: a sensory function, an interpretative function and a motor function. 1. Sensory nerves gather information from inside the body and the outside environment. The nerves then carry the information to the central nervous system (CNS). 2. Sensory information brought to the CNS is processed and interpreted. 3. Motor nerve cells convey information from the CNS to the muscles and glands of the body. The nervous system is responsible for coordinating all of the body's activities.

A 1500-W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120-V circuit that has a 20-A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hai

Korolek [52]

Answer:

b) 900 W

Explanation:

The breaker trips when the current is equal to 20 A. The power (P) is the ddp (V) multiplied by the current. So, for the electric heater, the current is:

P = V*i

1500 = 120*i

i = 12.5 A

So, to become in 20 A, it's needed 7.5 A, which must come from the hairdryer. Its power must be:

P = 120*7.5

P = 900 W

particle of mass 59 g and charge 51 µC is released from rest when it is 32 cm from a second particle of charge −14 µC. Determine

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The initial acceleration of the 59g particle is $1062.7\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Explanation:

Newton's second laws relates acceleration (a), net force(F) and mass (m) in the next way:

$F=ma$ (1)

We already know the mass of the particle so we should find the electric force on it to use on (1), the magnitude of the electric force between two charged objects by Columb's law is:

$F=k\frac{\mid q_{1}q_{2}\mid}{r^{2}}$

with q1 and q2 the charge of the particles, r the distance between them and k the constant $k=9.0\times10^{9}\,\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}$ . So:

$F=(9.0\times10^{9})\frac{\mid (51\times10^{-6})(-14\times10^{-6})\mid}{0.32^{2}}$

$F=62.7 N$

Using that value on (1) and solving for a

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{62.7}{0.059}=1062.7\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Cars A and B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head start and is a distanc

kumpel [21]

Answer: $\frac{D_A}{v_B-v_A}$

Explanation:

Given

car A had a head start of $D_A$

and it starts at x=0 and t=0

Car B has to travel a distance of $D_A and d_a$

where $d_a$ is the distance travel by car A in time t

distance travel by car A is

$d_a=v_A\times t$

For car B with speed $v_B$

$d_B=D_A+d_a$

$v_B\times t=D_A+v_A\times t$

$t=\frac{D_A}{v_B-v_A}$

Why is it important that home circuits are wired with parallel circuits?

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Parallel circuits are used in homes because the loads can be operated independently of each other. That means that you can have an electrical item turned on and running without needing to have all of the other loads on and running as well.
