Simple problem

1 cm requires 12 turns

Therefore, 1.8 cms require = 12 *1.8 turns = 21.6

Now omega (angular frequency) = 216 rpm = 216 rotations / min = 216 turns in a minute

Thus, It takes a minute for 216 turns then 21.6 turns require 1/10th of minute

Hence, answer is 6 seconds :)

12turns=1cm

1.8cm=12*1.8 turns

=21.6 turns

speed=216rpm=216/60 rps

=3.6 turns per sec

therefore,

time taken to make 21.6turns= 21.6/3.6 sec

=6 seconds...............
