A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]

1 answer:

6 0

-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
So if there's no air resistance, the speed of a falling object
always increases by 9.8 m/s for every second it falls.

   Speed = (original speed) + (gravity x falling time)

-- If it has no vertical speed when it started, then at the end
of 3 seconds, its speed is

   = (0)    + (9.8 m/s² x 3 sec)

   Velocity = 29.4 m/s downward .

Answer: the difference in the number of turns in each coil

Explanation:

A transformer is a device which is used transfer electrical energy from one circuit to another. It uses coils - primary and secondary having different turns. The current passes through the primary coil which induces emf in the secondary coil. The increase in potential depends on the number of turns in the coil.
