It depends where you are.

-- If you weigh 120 pounds on the Moon,
then your mass is  329.1 kilograms.

-- If you weigh 120 pounds on Mars,
 then your mass is  143.8 kilograms.

-- If you weigh 120  pounds on the Earth,
then your mass is  54.4 kilograms.

The speed of propagation of electrical signals in a nerve cell depends on the diameter of the axon (nerve fiber). If the nerve c
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

61 ms

Explanation:

Given that

Length of the nerve call connecting the spinal cord to your feet, s is 1.1 m

Speed of the impulse of the nerve, v = 18 m/s

Time taken by the nerve to travel the distance, t = ?

In solving this, we'd apply the very most basic formula in physics. Formula of speed, with respect to time and distance.

Speed, v = distance, s / time, t

time, t = distance, s / speed, v

time, t = 1.1 / 18

time, t = 0.061 s, converting to milliseconds, we have, time, t = 61 ms

A plastic rod of length d = 1.5 m lies along the x-axis with its midpoint at the origin. The rod carries a uniform linear charge
Serga [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the plastic rod extends from - L to + L .

consider a small length of dx on the rod on the positive x axis at distance x . charge on it =  λ dx where  λ is linear charge density .

It will create a field at point P on y -axis . Distance of point P

= √ x² + .15²

electric field at P due to small charged length

dE = k λ dx x  / (x² + .15² )

Its component along Y - axis

= dE cosθ where θ is angle between direction of field dE and y axis

= dE x .15 / √ x² + .15²

=  k λ dx  .15 / (x² + .15² )³/²

If we consider the same strip along the x axis at the same position  on negative x axis , same result will be found . It is to be noted that the component of field in perpendicular to y axis will cancel out each other . Now for electric field due to whole rod at point p , we shall have to integrate the above expression from - L to + L

E = ∫  k λ  .15  / (x² + .15² )³/² dx

=  k λ  x L / .15 √( L² / 4 + .15² )

What would be the daughter product of the beta decay of lead-212 and what would be the daughter product of the alpha decay of po
kati45 [8]

Answer:

lead with Z = 82 is transformed into Bismuth with Z = 73

The Po with Z = 84 becomes Pb with Z = 82

Explanation:

Beta decay occurs when a neutron emits an electron and an anti neutrino from the atomic nucleus, therefore the atomic number of the material increases by one unit.

           Pb + e + ν → Bi

lead with Z = 82 is transformed into Bismuth with Z = 73

In alpha decay, a helium nucleus is emitted from the nucleus of the atom, therefore the atomic number decreases by two units.

         Po +α → Pb

The Po with Z = 84 becomes Pb with Z = 82

GaryK [48]

Mary and her younger brother Alex decide to ride the carousel at the State Fair, Mary's and Alex's  angular speed M and tangential speed vM is mathematically given as

Mary's and Alex's  angular speed=1.43

Tangential speed mary=3.22 m/s

Tangential speed alex =2.260m/s

<h3>What is Mary's and Alex's angular speed M and tangential speed vM?</h3>

Generally, the equation for angular speed is mathematically given as

w=2\pi /T\\\\Therefore\\\\w=2\pi/3.9

w = 1.61 rev/see 3.9

Centripetal acc mary = v^2/r

Centripetal acc mary  = w^2r

Centripetal acc mary = w^2x 2m

Centripetal acc. of Alex = w²x L.u

Therefore

\frac{(ac) mary }{(ac) plex}= 1.43

Hence

tang. speed V=Wr

tang. speed of mary = 1.61x2 = 3.22 m/s

tang. speed of Alex: 1.61X1·4 =2.260m/s
