Say you were 100 meters tall. In that case, the nerve impulse would reach your brain in about 1 second, since it goes 100 meters per second. You're a little less than 50 times shorter, so the nerve impulse must take a little less than 1/50th of a second.
In fact, distance traveled = speed of travel * time it takes. Thus,
time = distance/speed
==> time = 1.7m/(100m/s)
==> time ~ 0.017 seconds, or about 17 milliseconds.
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.
