Answer:

Materials which do conduct electricity, like copper, are called conductors. In the middle are materials known as semiconductors, which don't conduct as well as conductors, but can carry current.

A nerve impulse travels along a myelinated neuron at 90.1 m/s.<br> What is this speed in mi/h?

algol [13]

Answer:

201.5537 mph

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Speed = 90.1 m/s

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

Speed = distance/time

To convert this value into miles per hour;

Conversion;

1 meter = 0.000621 mile

90.1 meters = 90.1 * 0.000621 = 0.05595 miles

1 metre per second = 2.237 miles per hour

90.1 meters per seconds = 90.1 * 2.237 = 201.5537 miles per hour

90.1 m/s = 201.5537 mph

When running a half marathon (13.1 miles), it took Kevin 8 minutes to run from mile marker 1 to mile marker 2, and 18 minutes to

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

It took Kevin 26 minutes to run from markers 1 to 4

His average speed from mile markers 1 to 4 is 0.154 miles/minute

Kevin must run by average speed 0.1 miles/minute to finish the race

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

A half marathon 13.1 miles

Kevin took 8 minutes to run from mile marker 1 to mile marker 2 and

18 minutes to run from mile marker 2 to mile marker 4

→ He took 8 minutes and 18 minutes to run from marker 1 to marker 4

→ The total time of the first 4 marker = 8 + 18 = 26 minutes

<em>It took Kevin 26 minutes to run from markers 1 to 4</em>

Average speed is total distance divided by total time

The average speed of Kevin as he ran from mile marker 1 to mile

marker 4 is the 4 miles divides by 26 minutes

→ Average speed = 4 ÷ 26 = $\frac{2}{13}$ = 0.154 miles/minute

<em>His average speed from mile markers 1 to 4 is 0.154 miles/minute</em>

It took Kevin 71 minutes to pass mile marker 9

Kevin need to complete the race in 112 minutes, then what must

Kevin's average speed be as he travels from mile marker 9 to the

finish line?

The total distance of the race is 13.1 miles, he ran 9 miles

→ The remaining distance = 13.1 - 9 = 4.1 miles

He must run 4.1 miles to complete the race

The total time is 112 minutes, he used 71 minutes to run the first 9 miles

→ The remaining time = 112 - 71 = 41 minutes

He must finish the 4.1 miles in 41 minutes

→ His average speed for the last part of the race = 4.1 ÷ 41 = 0.1 mi/min

<em>Kevin must run by average speed 0.1 miles/minute to finish the race</em>

A cyclotron is to accelerate protons to an energy of 5.4 MeV. The superconduction electromagnet of the cyclotron produces a 2.9T

mart [117]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Radius = 0.0818 m

Angular velocity = 2.775 × 10^7 rad/sec

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The mass of proton m=1.6748 × 10^-27 kg;

Charge of electron e= 1.602 × 10^-19 C;

kinetic energy E= 2.7 MeV

= 2.7 × 10^6 × 1.602 × 10^-19 J;

= 4.32 × 10^-13 Joules

But; K.E =0.5m*v^2,

Hence v=√(2K.E/m)

Velocity = 2.27 × 10^7 m/s

Angular velocity, ω = v/r

Therefore; V = ωr

Hence; V = √(2K.E/m) = ωr

r= √(2E/m)/w = √E*√(2*m)/(eB)

= √E * √(2×1.6748×10^-27)/(1.602×10^-19 ×2.9)

but E = 4.32 × 10^-13 Joules

r = 0.0818 m

Angular speed

Angular velocity, ω = v/r , where r is the radius and v is the velocity

Therefore;

Angular velocity = 2.27 × 10^7 / 0.0818 m

= 2.775 × 10^7 rad /sec

A 0.290 kg block on a vertical spring with a spring constant of 5.00 ✕ 103 N/m is pushed downward, compressing the spring 0.110

True [87]

Answer:

The height at point of release is 10.20 m

Explanation:

Given:

Spring constant : K= 5 x 10 to the 3rd power n/m

compression x = 0.10 m

Mass of block m= 0.250 kg

Here spring potential energy converted into potential energy,

mgh = 1/2 kx to the 2 power

For finding at what height it rise,

0.250 x 9.8 x h = 1/2 x 5 x 10 to the 3 power x (0.10)to the 2 power) - ( g= 9.8 m/8 to the 2 power

h= 10.20

Therefore, the height at point of release is 10.20 m
