The length of an axon is 10 mm, and its time constant is 4 msec. a voltage change at one end of the axon is 120 mv, which results in a change of about 10.35 mv at the opposite end after 4 msec. given this information, what is the length constant of the neuron? ( input answer in mm, rounded to the nearest whole number, without including the units.)
2) if the diameter of an axon is decreased, and the amount of ion channels stays the same causing membrane resistance to be largely unchanged, what would happen? (state all that apply.)
the length constant increases.
the length constant decreases.
the time constant increases.
the time constant decreases.

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. you then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the yacht. you see the ball move away from you at 100mph, while a person standing on a near by beach would observe your golf ball traveling at 120 mph (20 mph + 100 mph). now imagine you are aboard the hermes spacecraft traveling at 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) past mars and shine a laser from the front of the ship. you would see the light traveling at c (the speed of light) away from your ship. according to einstein’s special relativity, how fast will a person on mars observe the light to be traveling? a) 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) b) c (the speed of light) c)1.1c (c+0.1c)

Your physics assignment is to figure out a way to use electricity to launch a small 6.0-cm-long plastic drink stirrer. you decide that you'll charge the little plastic rod by rubbing it with fur, then hold it near a long, charged wire, as shown in figure p23.56 . when you let go, the electric force of the wire on the plastic rod will shoot it away. suppose you can uniformly charge the plastic stirrer to 10 nc and that the linear charge density of the long wire is 1.0 x10-7 c/m. what is the net electric force on the plastic stirrer if the end closest to the wire is 2.0 cm away?
