The ________ on the axis (c2) forms a pivot point with the atlas (c1) that allows you to nod a "no."

1 answer:

3 0

The dens or the odontoid process of the axis or the second cervical spine forms a pivot point with the atlas or the first cervical vertebrae that is responsible for the nodding and the rotational movements of the head. This is reinforced by ligaments and the atlanto-occipital joint that allows the head to make a nodding or up and down movement on the vertebral column.

In order for a person to "see" an object, light waves pass through the ___________.

spayn [35]

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. In order for a person to "see" an object, light waves pass through the cornea. The cornea is the transparent layer forming at the front of the eye. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

You then measure Polly's internal temperature to be 13oC, which is quite a drop from the normal human body temperature of 37oC.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The specific heat is 3.47222 J/kg°C.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature = 13°C

Temperature = 37°C

Mass = 60 Kg

Energy = 5000 J

We need to calculate the specific heat

Using formula of energy

$Q= mc\Delta T$

$c =\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}$

Put the value into the formula

$c=\dfrac{5000}{60\times(37-13)}$

$c=3.47222\ J/kg^{\circ}C$

Hence, The specific heat is 3.47222 J/kg°C.

What is the temperature increase of 4.0 kg of water when heated by an 800-W immersion heater for 10 min? (cw = 4 186 J/kg⋅°C)

Llana [10]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

mass of water = 4 Kg

Water is heated to = 800 W

time of immersion = 10 min

= 10 x 60 = 600 s

using equation of specific heat

Q = m S ΔT

S is the specific heat capacity of water which is equal to 4182 J/kg°C.

and another formula of heat

Q = Pt

now,

P t = m S ΔT

800 x 600 = 4 x 4182 x ΔT

ΔT = 29° C

temperature increased is equal to ΔT = 29° C

Hence, the correct answer is option C

A box is pulled to the right with a force of 65 N at an angle of 58 degrees to the horizontal. The surface is frictionless. The

Citrus2011 [14]

The free-body diagram is missing, but I assume the only forces acting on the box are the force F pushing the box, the weight of the object and the normal reaction of the surface.

Since the weight and the normal reaction acts in the vertical (y) direction, the only force acting on the box in the horizontal (x) direction is the horizontal component of the force F, which is given by
$F_x = F \cos 58^{\circ} = (65 N)(\cos 58^{\circ} )=34.4 N$
And so this is the net force in the x-direction.
