Number of Crossing (N) Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Number of Crossing (N)?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

N = \frac{S}{L c}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

N = \frac{28cm}{2cm}

Next Step Convert Units

∴

N = \frac{0.28m}{0.02m}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

N = \frac{0.28}{0.02}

LAST Step Evaluate

∴

N = 14
