Lectric field of axons. a nerve signal is transmitted
through a neuron when an excess of na+ ions suddenly
enters the axon, a long cylindrical part of the neuron. axons are
approximately 10.0 mm in diameter, and measurements show that
about 5.6 * 1011 na+ ions per meter (each of charge +e) enter
during this process. although the axon is a long cylinder, the charge does not all enter everywhere at the same time. a plausible
model would be a series of point charges moving along the
axon. consider a 0.10-mm length of the axon and model it as a
point charge. (a) if the charge that enters each meter of the axon
gets distributed uniformly along it, how many coulombs of charge
enter a 0.10-mm length of the axon? (b) what electric field (magnitude
and direction) does the sudden influx of charge produce
at the surface of the body if the axon is 5.00 cm below the
skin? (c) certain sharks can respond to electric fields as weak as
1.0 mn> c. how far from this segment of axon could a shark be
and still detect its electric field?

Give your knowledge of these things in your paper, you will compare and contrast analog and digital signals to determine which is more reliable for encoding and transmitting information. you’ll compare these features: signal shape numerical values for signal measurements amount of data that can be transmitted energy requirements privacy and security (ability of the signal to be encoded in a secret code) clarity of signal in the space provided, write down what you already know about any of these features. if you’re not sure, write down questions you might have about the features.

Light traveling in water, nwater = 1.33, strikes a plastic block at an angle of incidence of 51.4°; part of the beam is reflected and part is refracted. if the index of refraction of the plastic is 2.0, what is the angle made by the reflected and refracted beams?

Click the game tab at the bottom of the simulation and select level 1. (there is no seesaw balance for this part of the activity.) balance the first equation, and click check to see if you got it right. if you can’t balance it in the first try, you can try again. work through the five equations for level 1. click continue to go on to level 2, and later level 3. each level is more difficult than the one before. keep trying until all the equations are balanced. in one or two sentences, describe how you did in the balancing game. in a few more sentences, explain one strategy you learned for balancing more complex equations.
