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 of the following actions would decrease the energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor when a constant potential differen
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

increasing the separation between the plates

Explanation:

The increase in the vacuum/separation between the plates in a parallel plate capacitor connected to a constant potential difference decreases the energy stored in the capacitor. the increase in the separation of the plates of a parallel plate capacitor reduces the capacitance of the capacitor because

Q(charge) = CV  V = VOLTAGE , c = capacitance  

E = 1/2 eAV^2/ D  ( ENERGY STORED )

where D = distance between plates, e = dielectric, A = area of capacitor , V = potential difference

If one light bulb burns out in a string of lights, and the rest stay lit, it is reasonable to assume that the lights are wired i
Blizzard [7]
The lights are wired in PARALLEL.

In fact, when the lights are connected in parallel, they are connected on separate branches to the source of voltage, so if one light bulb burns out, the other lights continue to work because the current continues to flow in the other branches of the circuit.

Vice-versa, if the light bulbs are connected in series, they are on the same branch This means that if one of them burns out, the circuit is open in that point, so the current cannot flow anymore and the other light bulbs turn off as well.

Why are temperatures higher in the summer
pochemuha

Answer:Why are temperatures higher in summer than in winter?

During the summer, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. ... Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures. During the winter, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a shallow angle. These rays are more spread out, which minimizes the amount of energy that hits any given spot.
