Action Potentials An action potential is the change in electrical potential associated with the passage of an impulse along the membrane of a muscle cell or nerve cell. An action potential occurs when a neuron sends information down an axon‚ away from the cell body. A threshold is the minimum amount of stimulation needed to start a neural impulse (you know‚ the electrical impulses that travel throughout your body carrying important information). Action potentials generated by neural impulses are

Discussion and Conclusions Many obstacles to my potential strategy are worth overcoming. Since the brand new policy is to add extra taxes on smoking and fining the smoking companies for their actions‚ then one is able to make sure that people comply or go out of business. A way to overcome the challenges is to have someone from each company represented in Congress (Kottke‚ RN‚ GH‚ & ML.‚ 1988). This may mean making sure that there is someone in government that is passionate about this issue‚

Kress Fugl Mrs. Baines S5ENA Physics 8/2/15 Lab Report Experiment to measure the latent heat of vaporisation of water Theory Latent heat of vaporisation is when a liquid is heated enough to start boiling‚ at this point‚ even if the source of heat keeps heating the liquid‚ the liquid’s temperature will not rise any further until all of the liquid is converted to gas. For example‚ if water is boiling in a kettle‚ and the kettle is left on whist the water is boiling‚ the water’s temperature will not

Potential Energy Potential Energy is a type of energy that does not involve motion. It is the energy that is stored up. The more work done to change an object’s position or shape‚ the more potential energy it has. For example‚ a person on a ladder has more potential energy than a person on the ground because they have done more work to get up there. Kinetic Energy Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion. The more work an object has done‚ the more kinetic energy it has. the amount of kinetic

examples of work done=force x distance What is work? Work in physics is the transfer of energy; work is done on an object when an applied force moves it through a distance. The link between work and energy is work done equals energy transferred. The units for the two are also the same (joules). E.g. 500J of work = 500J of kinetic energy. Work is calculated with the formula: work done=force x distance moved For example‚ if a force of 10 newton (F = 10 N) acts along point that travels 2 meters

Science Lab Report Conclusion Ms. Seaward Jeneé S. White May 16‚ 2015 How Light Refracts Throughout Water My experimental question for my project is: Would light bend at a refractive angle after it propagates through water? The resolution to my experimental question is that light does bend at a refractive angle after it propagates through water. My hypothesis for my project is: I hypothesize that light will bend because of real world examples and experiments. One instance is light refracts

promote society’s values. Important social skills needed in the work force and everyday life are learned at school‚ such as sharing‚ compromise‚ and the importance of teamwork. As a student‚ I want to encourage and help children to reach their full potential. I want students to realize that they are all different‚ and understand that diversity is a good thing. I believe that there are different types of intelligence‚ and creativity is just as important as logic. Teachers’ behavior should reflect values

Why did a minor math error that would occur only once every 27‚000 years so enrage customers that it briefly threatened to derail Intel’s Pentium chip? And how could a feature as trivial as an inexpensive cup holder swing millions of customers to purchase a $17‚000 automobile—particularly when only
