Yes, thumbtack is a compound word made up of 'thumb' and 'tack'.
Loop the string around the thumbtack and the pencil so that the distance from the tack to the pencil point is AB units. Fix the thumbtack to where you want the centre of the circle. Using the pencil, and with the string taut, mark its positions. These will lie on a circle with radius AB.
They both have a point.
The thumbtack sinks while the paper clip floats due to differences in their density and shape. The thumbtack is denser than water and has a shape that allows it to displace less water relative to its weight, leading to a net downward force. In contrast, the paper clip, although also made of metal, has a shape that allows it to displace enough water to generate an upward buoyant force that exceeds its weight, enabling it to float.
Common items that are approximately 1 inch in length include a standard paperclip, a thumbtack, and a small button. Additionally, a typical LEGO brick is often around 1 inch in width, and a US quarter coin is close to that size. These everyday objects provide a good sense of what 1 inch looks like in real life.
A standard thumbtack typically measures about ¾ of an inch in length.
There are no perfect rhymes for the word thumbtack.

Huh, can't you float a thumbtack in water? If it sinks, it means that the amount of water displaced weighs less than the tack.
A banana has the greater mass of the two, unless the thumbtack is made of something extremely dense, like neutronium.

No, a thumbtack is not an inclined plane. An inclined plane is a flat surface that is tilted, while a thumbtack is a small pin with a sharp end used for holding objects in place.
