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.

calculate the electric field strength between two parallel plates separated by 0.50 cm, across which is a potential of 12 volts.
Alexxandr [17]
Formula for Electric Field strength , E =  V/d

where V = Voltage in volts, and d = distance of separation in meters.

d = 0.5 cm = 0.005 m,    V = 12 V

E = V/d =  12 / 0.005

E = 2400

Electric Field Strength = 2400 Volts/meter

During the spin cycle of your clothes washer, the tub rotates at a steady angular velocity of 33.5 rad/s. Find the angular displ
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: angular displacement in rad = 3038.45 rad

angular displacement in rev = 483.589 rev

Explanation: mathematically

Angular velocity = angular displacement / time taken.

Angular velocity = 33.5 rad/s, time taken = 90.7s

33.5 = angular displacement /90.7

Angular displacement = 33.5 * 90.7 = 3038.45 rad

But 1 rev =2π

Hence 3038.45 rad to rev is

3038.45/2π = 483.599 rev
