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 dart is thrown at a dartboard 3.66 m away. When the dart is released at the same height as the center of the dartboard, it hit
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The  angle is  \theta  =  15.48^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The distance of the dartboard from the dart is  d  =  3.66  \ m

     The time taken is  t =  0.455 \ s

   

The  horizontal component of the speed of the dart is mathematically represented as

      u_x =  ucos \theta

where u is the the velocity at dart is lunched

  so

      distance =  velocity \ in \ the\  x-direction  *  time

substituting values

      3.66 =   ucos  \theta *  (0.455)

 =>   ucos \theta =  8.04  \ m/s

From projectile kinematics the time taken by the dart can be mathematically represented as

         t  =  \frac{2usin \theta }{g}

=>    usin \theta =  \frac{g  * t}{2 }

       usin \theta =  \frac{9.8  * 0.455}{2 }

      usin \theta = 2.23

=>   tan \theta =  \frac{usin\theta }{ucos \theta }  =  \frac{2.23}{8.04}

       \theta  =  tan^{-1} [0.277]

      \theta  =  15.48^o

What happens to light waves from a star as the star moves toward Earth?
Musya8 [376]
This shifts the star’s spectral lines toward the blue end of the spectrum. If the star is moving away from us, it’s waves are effectively stretched out when they reach earth, increasing their wavelength. This shifts the star’s spectral lines toward the red end of the spectrum.

What is the difference between kinetic and gravitacional energy?
kondaur [170]

Answer:

In physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion

In classical mechanics, the gravitational potential at a location is equal to the work (energy transferred) per unit mass that would be needed to move an object to that location from a fixed reference location. It is analogous to the electric potential with mass playing the role of charge. The reference location, where the potential is zero, is by convention infinitely far away from any mass, resulting in a negative potential at any finite distance.

In mathematics, the gravitational potential is also known as the Newtonian potential and is fundamental in the study of potential theory. It may also be used for solving the electrostatic and magnetostatic fields generated by uniformly charged or polarized ellipsoidal bodies
