A frog is at the bottom of a 17-foot well. Each time the frog leaps, it moves up 3 feet. If the frog has not reached the top of

the well, then the frog slides back 1 foot before it is ready to make another leap. How many leaps will the frog need to escape the well?

Answer:

The frog takes 8 jumps to reach top of well

Explanation:

Given data

Frog at bottom=17 foot

Each time frog leaps 3 feet

Frog has not reached the top of the well, then the frog slides back 1 foot

To Find

Total number of leaps the frog needed to escape from well

Solution

in 1 jump distance jumped=3+(-1)

                                           =2 feet

                                           =2×1 feet

The "-1" is because the frog goes back

Now After 2 jumps the distance jumped as:

                     Distance Jumped=2+2

                     Distance Jumped=2*2

                                                   =4 feet

Similarly after 7 jumps

                    Distance Jumped=2+2+......+2

                    Distance Jumped=2*7

                                                 =14 feet

Now after 8th jump the frog climbs but doesnot slide back as it is reached to the top of well.

So

              Distance Jumped=(Distance Jumped after 7 jumps)+3

                                           =14+3

                                           =17 feet

The frog takes 8 jumps to reach top of well

QveST [7]

Answer :First part is what you learned so write what you learned then the other parts is The evidence that the universe is expanding comes with something called the red shift of light. Light travels to Earth from other galaxies. As the light from that galaxy gets closer to Earth, the distance between Earth and the galaxy increases, which causes the wavelength of that light to get longer.

The 2779-m Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel, connecting Brooklyn and Manhattan, is one of the world's longest underwater vehicular tunnel
Marina CMI [18]
For a cylinder that has both ends open resonant frequency is given by the following formula:
f= \frac{nv}{2L}
Where n is the resonance node, v is the speed of sound in air and L is the length of a cylinder.
The fundamental frequency is simply the lowest resonant frequency.
We find it by plugging in n=1:
f_0= \frac{v}{2L}=\frac{343}{2\cdot 2779}=0.062 Hz
To find what harmonic has to be excited so that it resonates at f>20Hz we simply plug in f=20 Hz and find our n:
20= \frac{n343}{2\cdot 2779} =n\cdot f_0
We can see that any resonant frequency is simply a multiple of a base frequency.
Let us find which harmonic resonates with the frequency 20 Hz:
20=n\cdot f_0\\ n=\frac{20}{0.062}=322.58
Since n has to be an integer, final answer would be 323.

Why is it important to learn refusal skills?
Elena L [17]

I'd say C to avoid situations in which alcohol is present and remain alcohol free

Refusal skills help people, most likely children it helps them avoid participating in risky behaviors and choices. such like alcohol in this case

Refusal skills Helps them resist peer pressure and help them make right choices


Hope that helps alrighty bye now!

If a electrician measures the current of a circuit to be 100 Amps and the circuit is only designed to have a current of 80 Amps,
Talja [164]

There are too many batteries in the circuit, which increased the emf of the circuit and in turn increased the current in the circuit.

<h3>Current in the circuit</h3>

The current in the circuit is determined by applying Ohms law as shown below;

V = IR

where;

  • I is the current
  • V is the voltage
  • R is the resistance

I = V/R

At a constant resistance of the circuit, the current in a circuit will increase when the emf of the circuit increases.

Thus, we can conclude that, there are too many batteries in the circuit, which increased the emf of the circuit and in turn increased the current in the circuit.

Calculate the tension on the rope.<br> A. 57.89 N<br> B. 32.73 N<br> C. 69.84 N<br> D. 12.55 N
Ratling [72]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{\text{B. 32.73N}}

To calculate the tension, we must calculate the acceleration of the system.

Begin with a summation of forces:

∑F = -M₁gsinФ + T - T + M₂g

Simplify and solve for acceleration: (Tensions cancel out)

a = \frac{-M_1gsin\theta + T - T + M_2g}{M_1+M_2}

Plug in values. Let g = 10 m/s²

a = \frac{-3(10)(sin30)+8(10)}{3+8} = 5.91 m/s^{2}

Now, to find tension, let's sum up the forces acting on ONE block. For simplicity, we can look at the hanging block:

∑F = -T + W

ma = -T + W

Rearrange to solve for T:

T = W - ma

We know the acceleration, so plug in the values:

T = (8)(10) - (8)(5.91) = 32.73 N
