Problem
Current Attempt in Progress You step onto a hot beach with your bare feet. A nerve impulse, generated in your foot, travels through your nervous system at an average speed of $190 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. How much time does it take for the impulse, which travels a distance of $1.68 \mathrm{~m}$, to reach your brain? Number Units
Solution
Step 1 ：Given the distance of \(1.68\mathrm{~m}\) and the speed of \(190\mathrm{~m/s}\), we can use the formula: \(time = \frac{distance}{speed}\)
Step 2 ：Plug in the values: \(time = \frac{1.68}{190}\)
Step 3 ：Calculate the time: \(time \approx 0.00884\mathrm{~s}\)
Step 4 ：\(\boxed{0.00884\mathrm{~s}}\)
