Hello, srry if this has been done but i am unable to locate the search bar on the site.

I was hoping that someone her can help me find the point of origin formula, because i have reference points and i need to find a rough point of point origin.
If someone can help
Thankyou in Advance :)

I think you will need to tell us precisely what the problem is. My first reaction would be that the formula for the origin is "(0,0)"! Apparently that's not what you mean.
" i have reference points and i need to find a rough point of point origin."

What reference points do you have?
 


Hello! No need to apologize, I'm happy to help. The point of origin formula is used to determine the approximate starting point of a particular object or event. It takes into account reference points and measurements to calculate the origin point. There are a few different formulas that can be used, depending on the specific situation and available information. One common formula is the distance formula, which involves finding the distance between two reference points and using that to determine the origin point. Another is the midpoint formula, which can be used when you have three reference points. If you can provide more information about your specific situation and what you're trying to find the origin point of, I may be able to give you a more specific formula to use. I hope this helps!
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
