The speed of propagation of the action potential (an electrical signal) in a nerve cell depends (inversely) on the diameter of t

he axon (nerve fiber). If the nerve cell connecting the spinal cord to your feet is 1.3 m long, and the nerve impulse speed is 33 m/s, how long (in s) does it take for the nerve signal to travel this distance?

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed of electrical nerve signal = 33 m /s

Distance travelled = 1.3 m

time taken = distance / speed

= 1.3 / 33  

= .039 s

= 39 ms ( millisecond )  .

A hoop and a disk with uniform mass distribution have the same radius but the total masses are not known. Can they both roll dow
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

radius of hoop and the radius of disk is same = R

Let the mass of hoop is M and the mass of disk is M'.

As they reach the bottom of teh surface in same time so they travel equal distance thus, they have same acceleration.

The acceleration is given by

a=\frac{gSin\theta }{1+\frac{I}{MR^{2}}}

As the acceleration is same so that the moment of inertia is also same.

Moment of inertia of disk = moment of inertia of hoop

1/2 x mass of disk x R² =  mass of hoop x R²

So, mass of disk = 2 x mass of hoop

Option (c) is correct.
