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 )  .

An 8 kilogram bowling ball is rolling in a straight line toward you. if its momentum is 16 kg* m/s, how fast is it traveling ?
morpeh [17]
From the information given, The mass of the bowling ball is 8 Kilograms and the momentum with which it is moving is 16 kg m/s. We use the formula p = m × v Where p is the momentum, m is the mass and v is the velocity. We need velocity so we rewrite the equation thus: P = mv, therefore p/m = v or v = p/m In our case p = 16 and m = 8 v = p/m v = 16/8 v = 2 Therefore the bowling ball is travelling at 2m/s

Tatiana [17]

Answer: The correct answer is True.

Explanation:

Loudness of sound is referred to how soft or loud a sound is for the listener.

This term is measured in a unit known as decibels referred to as dB.

This unit is used to measure the relative intensity of sounds on a scale from zero to 100 dB.

More the value of decibels, it will be uncomfortable for a person to hear that sound.

So Yes, the loudness of sound is measured in decibels.

How many electrons have been removed from a positively charged electroscope if it has a net charge of 6x10-11?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

<h3>Because one Coulomb of charge is an abnormally large quantity of charge, the units of microCoulombs (µC) or nanoCoulombs (nC) are more commonly used as the unit of measurement of charge. To illustrate the magnitude of 1 Coulomb, an object would need an excess of 6.25 x 1018 electrons to have a total charge of -1 C.</h3>
