What is the formula for reference point?
A frame of reference in physics may refer to a coordinate system or set of axes within which to measure the position, orientation, and other properties of objects in it, or it may refer to an observational reference frame tied to the state of motion of an observer. It may also refer to both an observational reference frame and an attached coordinate system as a unit. There is no particular formula to calculate this.
What device is appropriate in measuring spherical objects?
calipers can measure its diameter and check for roundness. Water displacement can measure its volume.
What is the product of a moving objects mass times its weight?
The product does not make any sensible measure.
How do you measure the diameter of a bowling ball?
The instrument used to measure the diameter of spherical objects is called calipers.
A triple-beam balance is used to measure?
Mass, typically in grams.
Can you use a cartesian coordinate to measure three dimensional objects?
Yes! By expanding the system to 3D!
It's impossible to use a Cartesian coordinate system to measure three-dimensional objects?
It is possible, but you need to use three axes.
What is a tool you can use to give a picture of equations and other mathematical objects?
Cartesian coordinate
A Cartesian system like a number line is a tool you can use to give a picture of equations and other mathematical objects?
coordinate
How do you Enter 3D Coordinates in GstarCAD?
Cartesian, cylindrical, or spherical coordinates locate points when you are creating objects in 3D.Enter X.Y.Z coordinate3D Cartesian coordinates specify a precise location by using three coordinate values: X, Y, and Z.Entering 3D Cartesian coordinate values (X,Y,Z) is similar to entering 2D coordinate values (X,Y). In addition to specifying X and Y values, you also specify a Z value using the following format:X,Y,Z
How was the coordinate plane discovered?
A general coordinate system had to be devised prior to describing planes or other objects. As provided in the link, Rene Descartes is considered the founder of the Cartesian coordinate system in 1637, but Fermat also made contributions. See related links on the lives of Descartes and Fermat.
Who discovered coordinate graphs?
Rene Descartes invented the coordinate system that is most commonly used (where the two axes are perpendicular to each other, and each point is determined by its projection or "shadow" onto the axes). This is why we call them Cartesian coordinates. I believe the legend is that he was observing a fly on his ceiling when he realized he could describe its position based on the lines formed by his ceiling tiles. There are alternative coordinate systems that used in special situations, such as polar coordinates, cylindrical coordinates, and spherical coordinates. Each system has its strengths and weaknesses and each is well-suited to describing certain kinds of objects or functions. Cartesian coordinates, also called rectilinear coordinates, are useful for describing linear/straight objects, whereas the other coordinate systems I mentioned are better for curved objects.
What is the full name of a CMM machine?
The full name of a CMM machine is 'coordinate measuring machine' which is used to measure the physical geometric properties of objects of all shapes and sizes.
What can you graph on a cartesian graph?
Any data consisting of two sets of quantitative measures on a set of objects. Although the horizontal axis is often used for categories, the graph is then not a Cartesian graph.Any data consisting of two sets of quantitative measures on a set of objects.

Are celestial bodies identified by a 3 axis coordinate XYZ just as terrestrial locations have Latitude and Longitude X and Y cordinates?
Not quite. Instead of being described in Cartesian coordinates such as X, Y, and Z, celestial objects are described in an angular coordinate system sometimes called "rho, theta". These are letters of the Greek alphabet often used to measure angles.We still use three coordinates representing the number of degrees around the ecliptic a celestial object is, and the number of degrees north or south of the ecliptic plane. The third coordinate is a distance. These are similar to the bearing, elevation and range coordinates that you might use in gunnery.
