Answer: Robert Hooke

Explanation: Hooke's law, law of elasticity discovered by the English scientist Robert Hooke in 1660, which states that, for relatively small deformations of an object, the displacement or size of the deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force or load.

Sarah, whose mass is 40 kg, is on her way to school after a winter storm when she accidentally slips on a patch of ice whose coe

Sarah's acceleration is -0.49 m/s^2

Explanation:

The force of kinetic friction acting on Sarah has a magnitude which is given by:

F_f = \mu mg

where

\mu is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m is Sarah's mass

g is the acceleration of gravity

Moreover, according to Newton's second law of motion, we know that the net force on Sarah is equal to its mass times its acceleration:

F=ma

where a is the acceleration

Since the force of friction is the only force acting on Sarah, we can say that the net force is equal to the force of friction, therefore:

F=-\mu mg = ma

where the negative sign is due to the fact that the force of friction has a direction opposite to the motion of Sarah. Solving for a, we find

a=-\mu g

And substituting the following values:

\mu = 0.05 (coefficient of friction)

g=9.81 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

we find:

a=-(0.05)(9.81)=-0.49 m/s^2

The ________ on the axis (c2) forms a pivot point with the atlas (c1) that allows you to nod a "no."
grandymaker [24]
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.
