Answer: opening of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channels.

Explanation:

Neuromuscular junction is a special junction formed between a motor neurone and a muscle fibre. The junction is fortified with nerves and receptors that helps in the transmission of signals from the motor neurone to the muscle fibre in order to bring about the desired voluntary movements through muscular contraction.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor are activated through the binding of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. This action leads to influx of sodium ions to accomplish endplate potential.

Sound waves travel in air at 343 m/s. The lowest frequency one can hear is 25.0 Hz; the highest frequency is 25.0 kHz. Find the

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

13.72 m and 0.01372 m respectively

Explanation:

Wavelength: This can be defined as the distance covered in one complete oscillation. The S.I unit of wavelength is meter (m).

The formula for the speed of a wave is given as

v = λf ............................. Equation 1

Where v = speed of the sound wave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency of the sound wave.

make λ the subject of the equation,

λ = v/f ......................... Equation 2

For the lowest frequency,

Given: f = 25 Hz, v = 343 m/s.

Substitute into equation 2

λ = 343/25

λ = 13.72 m.

For the highest frequency,

Given: f = 25 kHz = 25000 Hz, v = 343 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

λ = 343/25000

λ = 0.01372 m.

The wavelength of sound for 25 Hz and 25 kHz = 13.72 m and 0.01372 m respectively

A light ray incident on a block of glass makes an incident angle of 50.0° with the normal to the surface. The refracted ray in t

Andru [333]

Answer:

$n_{glass} = 1.65$

Explanation:

As we know that the angle of incidence is given as

$i = 50.0^o$

also we have angle of refraction as

$r = 27.7^o$

now by Snell's law we know that

$n_{air} sin i = n_{glass} sin r$

$1 sin50 = n_{glass} sin 27.7$

now we have

$n_{glass} = \frac{sin 50}{sin 27.7}$

$n_{glass} = 1.65$

Multiple-Concept Example 9 reviews the concepts that are important in this problem. A drag racer, starting from rest, speeds up

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

V = 90.51 m/s

Explanation:

From the given information:

Initial speed (u) = 0

Distance (S) = 391 m

Acceleration (a) = 18.9 m/s²

Using the relation for the equation of motion:

v² - u² = 2as

v² - 0² = 2as

v² = 2as

$v = \sqrt{2as}$

$v = \sqrt{2*18.9*391}$

v = 121.57 m/s

After the parachute opens:

The initial velocity = 121.57 m/ss

Distance S' = 332 m

Acceleration = -9.92 m/s²

How fast is the racer can be determined by using the relation:

$V= \sqrt{v^2 + 2aS'}$

$V = \sqrt{121.57^2+ 2 (-9.92)(332)}$

V = 90.51 m/s
