Answer:

600 seconds.

Explanation:

A caterpillar climbs up a one meter (100 cm) wall.

For every 2 cm caterpillar climbs up and slides down 1 cm.

That means caterpillar climbs up = 2 - 1 = 1 cm

Caterpillar reaches to the top in 10 minutes. We have to calculate the time in seconds.

Since 1 minute = 60 seconds

Therefore, 10 minutes = 10×60 = 600 seconds

Time involved for the caterpillar to climb to the top will be 600 seconds.

Consider a particle with unit charge q, and mass m, in a constant magnetic field B directed along the positive z–axis. The parti
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

it must be helical motion in which the charge particle will move uniformly along z axis and simultaneously it will move in circular path in xy plane.

Explanation:

Magnetic field is along z axis while velocity is in x-z plane

so we will have

F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)

so here we can say

F = q(u\hat i + w\hat k) \times (B \hat k)

so we will have

F = quB(-\hat j)

so here the net force on the charge is perpendicular to its x directional velocity along - Y direction

So due to this component of motion it will move along a circle while other component of the motion will remain uniform always

So here it is combination of two parts

1) Uniform circular motion

2) Uniform motion

So we can say that it must be helical motion in which the charge particle will move uniformly along z axis and simultaneously it will move in circular path in xy plane.

A 380-N girl walks down a flight of stairs so that she is 2.5 m below her starting level. What is the change in the girl's gravi
Svetach [21]
PEg = Mass x Height x Gravity. So it doesn't matter how much PEg she started with, since you're finding how much it changed when she walked down 2.5 meters of stairs. So by plugging into the equation, you'll find how much potential energy was lost by walking down. (I'll leave it up to you since idk if you use 10 or 9.8 as gravity)
