Newton's third law states "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

What this is pretty much saying is that for every action, there is a consequence. One force connects and triggers another.

Newton's third law says, " For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

The magnitude of action and reaction are equal but the direction is opposite.

In one sentence describe how the electricity in an action potential is generated

vova2212 [387]

Due to influx of potassium ions, electricity is generated in axon of a neuron.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Axon membrane is the semi permeable membrane that is full of potassium and sodium channels. There’s also Sodium Potassium ATPase pumps. When there’s an impulse coming through the synapse, the potassium channels open. This leads to influx of sodium from outside the membrane to inside it. Then the membrane becomes positive.

Then the electricity is generated and its conducted from one part to another. After the impulse is conducted, the sodium potassium pumps come in action which transports 3 sodium inside and 2 potassium outside in consumption to an ATP.

the force of a bag of potatoes on a vegetable stand is 22.5 N down. what is the force of the vegetable stand on the bag of potat

natima [27]

As per Newton's III law we can say that

Force applied by object 1 on object 2 is always equal in magnitude and opposite in direction of the force that object 2 apply on object 1.

So we can say it as

$F_{12} = -F_{21}$

now here above question is based upon the same

if a bag of vegetables applied a force F = 22.5 N of the surface stand the the same surface will apply same magnitude of force in opposite direction on the vegetables bag

So our answer will be F = 22.5 N (upwards).

A - the objects are too small

GRAVITATIONAL FORCE IS EXPERIENCED BY ALL OBJECTS IN THE UNIVERSE ALL THE TIME. BUT THE ORDINARY OBJECTS YOU SEE EVERY DAY HAVE MASSES SO SMALL THAT THEIR ATTRACTION TOWARD EACH OTHER IS HARD TO DETECT. -https://www.ftsd.org/cms/lib6/MT01001165/Centricity/ModuleInstance/630/CHAPTER_2_NOTES_FOR_EIGHTH_GRADE_PHYSICAL_SCIENCE.pdf
