20 Days sounds like the obvious answer

16 days is the correct answer. The snail can go 5 feet each day... and slides back 4 each night. He will get to the 19th foot on the 15th DAY but will slide back to the 15 foot mark on the 15th NIGHT. He will climb 5 feet on the 16th day, reaching the 20 foot mark.

Person mass 95kg on a 22kg ladder against frictionless wall angle 65 horizontal 10 m long ladder at rests on wet floor with a static friction 40 what max length person can climb before lader slips?

To determine the maximum length a 95 kg person can climb up a 10 m ladder resting against a frictionless wall, we need to consider the forces acting on the ladder. The static friction force at the base of the ladder must be sufficient to counteract the moment created by the person's weight. Given the static friction coefficient of 0.40 with a total weight of the ladder and person, we can calculate the critical point where the ladder begins to slip. The maximum distance the person can climb before the ladder slips is approximately 4.19 m from the base, taking into account the ladder's angle and the distribution of forces.

A frog is at a bottom of a 10 foot well every day he crawls up 3 feet but at night he slips down 2 feethow many days will it take him to get out of the well?

The frog effectively climbs 1 foot each day (3 feet up during the day minus 2 feet down at night). After 7 days, he will have climbed 7 feet. On the 8th day, he climbs 3 feet to reach the top of the well at 10 feet, without slipping back down that night. Therefore, it will take him 8 days to get out of the well.
