BIO Transmission of Nerve Impulses. Nerve cells transmit electric
signals through their long tubular axons. These signals propagate due to a
sudden rush of ions, each with charge , into the axon. Measurements
have revealed that typically about ions enter each meter of the
axon during a time of . What is the current during this inflow of charge
in a meter of axon?
Lightning Strikes. During lightning strikes from a cloud to the
ground, currents as high as 25,000 A can occur and last for about 40 ms.
How much charge is transferred from the cloud to the earth during such a
strike?
A 140-g ball containing excess electrons is dropped into a 110-m vertical shaft. At the bottom of the shaft, the ball suddenly enters a uniform horizontal magnetic field that has magnitude 0.300 T and direction from east to west. If air resistance is negligibly small, find the magnitude ond direction of the force that this magnetic field exerts on the ball just as it enters the field.
