A meter is 100 meters. So a hundredth of a meter stick is a centimeter.<span />

Answer

$\frac{1}{100}$

Explanation:

A meter stick is a tool used to measure length and distances. We know that one meter is equal to 100cm.

So,

100 cm = 1 meter

1 cm = $\frac{1}{100}$ meter

Thus we can see that one hundredth of a meter stick is one centimeter.

The centimeter scale can be used to measure smaller lengths.

A cheetah can go from a state of resting to running at 20 m/s in just two seconds what is the cheetah's average acceleration?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

It's C i believe. To solve it we just take 20 and divide it by 2. Which gives us the average of 10 m/s

A 5.7 kg block attached to a spring executes simple harmonic motion on a frictionless horizontal surface. At time t = 0s, the bl

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of block $m=5.7\ kg$

at $t=0 s$

displacement is $x=-0.7\ m$

velocity $v=-0.8\ m/s$

acceleration $a=2.7\ m/s^2$

suppose $x=A\cos (\omega t+\phi )$ is the general equation of SHM

where A=amplitude

$\omega$ =natural frequency of oscillation

therefore velocity and acceleration is given by

$v=-A\omega \sin (\omega t+\phi )$

$a=A\omega ^2\cos (\omega t+\phi )$

for t=0

$-0.7=A\cos (\phi )---1$

$v=-0.8=-A\omega \sin(\phi)---2$

$a=2.7=-A\omega ^2\cos(\phi )----3$

divide 1 and 3 we get

$\omega ^2=\frac{27}{7}$

$\omega =\sqrt{\frac{27}{7}}$

Now square and 1 and 2 we get

$(0.7)^2+(\frac{0.8}{\omega })^2=A^2$

$A^2=0.49+0.166$

$A=0.81\ m$

Answer:

The universal law of gravitation.

PE = m * G M / R^2 potential energy of mass m due to attractive forces

If the kinetic energy of mass m is greater than the energy due to the attractive masses then then mass m can continue indefinitely away from the attracting masses.
