Answer:

1 cm = 0.131 daks

Explanation:

It is given that,

1 dak = 3 inches

and

1 inch = 2.54 cm

We need to find how many "daks" are there in a centimeter. We can do the conversions as follows :

1\ dak=1\ dak\times \dfrac{3\ inches}{1\ dak}\times \dfrac{2.54\ cm}{1\ inch}

1\ dak=7.62\ cm

1\ cm=\dfrac{1}{7.62}\ dak

1 cm = 0.131 dak

So, there are 0.131 daks in 1 centimeter. Hence, this is the required solution.

F = G m1*m2 / r^2 => [G] = [F]*[r]^2 /([m1]*[m2]) = N * m^2 / kg^2

That is one answer.

Also, you can use the fact that N = kg*m/s^2

[G] = kg * m / s^2 * m^2 / kg^2 = m^3 /(s^2 * kg)

Isaac Newton used a ____ to break white light into its component colors.
ivann1987 [24]
<h2>Answer: Prism</h2>

In the eighteenth century Isaac Newton found out that <u>when a beam of light from the Sun, passes trhough a prism is decomposed in many different colors</u>. He named this phenomenom as dispersion of light.

This phenomenom occurs when a beam of white light (which is compound of many wavelengths or "colors") is refracted (the different rays of light are diverted depending on their wavelengths) in some medium, leaving their constituent colors separated.  

Therefore:

AnnyKZ [126]
2m/s because the hockey puck is traveling at a constant speed ( acceleration is 0 ). Unless something acts on the hockey puck it will travel 2 m/s forever.
