If a frog falls down a fifty-foot well and has to climb his way out making three feet of progress every day but slipping back two feet every night in how many days will he escape?

50 days


A snail is at the bottom of a well 20m deep it crawls up 4 meters in 1.5 hours by which time it is tired and instantly falls back 3 meters how long does it take for the snail to climb out of the well?

It takes 1.5 hours to climb 1 meter. The well is 20m high. So you multiply 1.5 and 20, which equals 30 (0.5 or 50% or half of tweny is ten, so I added ten on to twenty and got thirty). It would take the snail 30 hours.

Why is it difficult to climb a vertical slope than a gentle slope?

Gravity is always pulling objects down so when you climb upward gravity weighs you down, you have to use effort to move yourself in the oposite direction that gravity is pulling you that is why it is harder to climb up a slope. When you climb a gentle slope you still are using energy but it takes longer to reach the same height on a gentle slope versus a verticle slope. On a verticle slope you are climbing higher instead of farther so on each step gravity weighs you down much more than on a gentle slope. When climbing a gentle slope you don't rise as rapidly so gravity doesn't take as much of a toll on you and you have a chamce to recover.
