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

Physics

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.

Which equation is correct according to Ohm’s law? Which equation is correct according to Ohm’s law? A.) V = IR B.) I = R/V C.) R
vodomira [7]

Answer:

V = IR

Explanation:

Required

Which equation represents ohm's law?

Literally, ohm's law implies that current (I) is directly proportional to voltage (V) and inversely proportional to resistance (R).

Mathematically, this can be represented as:

I\ \alpha\ \frac{V}{R}

Convert the expression to an equation

I\ =\ \frac{V}{R}

Multiply both sides by R to make V the subject

I\ * R\ =\ \frac{V}{R} * R

I\ * R\ =V

Reorder

V = I\ * R

V = IR

<em>Option (a) is correct; Others are not</em>

Two planets have the same surface gravity, but planet b has twice the radius of planet
nevsk [136]
The formula for the acceleration due to gravity is:

a = Gm/r²
where
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.6726 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²
m is the mass of planet
r is the radius of planet

So, if they have the same a:

m₁/r₁² = m₂/r₂²
So, if m₁ = m and r₂ = 2r₁,
m/r₁² = m₂/(2r₁)²
m₂ = 4m

<em>Thus, the answer is D.</em>

Even though you are getting closer to the sun as you ascend into the toposphere, why does the temperature drop?
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: The lower areas of the Atmosphere have a high temperature through the heats from the ground.

Explanation: High temperature experienced on the Earth surface is majorly caused by heats from the ground ( Earth crust).As a person ascend up to the Toposphere the temperature continues to reduce because because the heat from the ground is reduced as the heights increased.

It has been proven that as a person ascends into the Toposphere the amount of air and pressure reduces this will eventually lead to expansion of the gas particles which will then reduce the temperature.
