The answer given by E2020 is

"The padding around the goal post increases the time of the collision between the player and the post, which decreases the force exerted to bring the player to a stop"

Explanation :

Goal posts at the ends of football fields are padded as a safety measure for players who might run into them.

This is due to thick padding around the goal post reduce injuries to players. In a physics point of view, this would decrease the force.

According to Newton's second law, F = m a

or F=\dfrac{m\times v}{t}

The thick padding increases the time of interaction of the player and the post. As a result, the force will decrease.

Hence, the chances of injury can be reduced.

What will be the force if the particle's charge is tripled and the electric field strength is halved? Give your answer in terms
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

1.5F

Explanation:

Using

E= F/q

Where F= force

E= electric field

q=charge

F= Eq

So if qis tripled and E is halved we have

F= (E/2)3q

F= 1.5Eq=>> 1.5F

Which refers to the change of pitch heard when the source of the sound approaches and then moves away from a stationary person?
babunello [35]
<h2><em>The Doppler effect is a change in the frequency of sound waves that occurs when the source of the sound waves is moving relative to a stationary listener. As the source of sound waves approaches a listener, the sound waves get closer together, increasing their frequency and the pitch of the sound.</em></h2><h2><em>HOP</em>E IT HELPS </h2><h2>THANK YOU </h2>

How many turns are in its secondary coil, if its input voltage is 120 V and the primary coil has 210 turns
Tasya [4]

Complete Question

How many turns are in its secondary coil, if its input voltage is 120 V and the primary coil has 210 turns.

The output from the secondary coil is  12 V

Answer:

The value  is  N_s  =  21 \  turns

Explanation:

From the equation we are told that

   The input voltage is  V_{in}  = 120 \ V

   The number of turns of the primary coil is N_p =  210 \  turn

    The output from the secondary is V_o =  12V

From the transformer equation

   \frac{N_p}{V_{in}}  =\frac{N_s}{V_o}

Here N_s is the number of turns in the secondary coil

=> N_s  =  \frac{N_p}{V_{in}}  *  V_s

=>N_s  =  \frac{210}{120}  *  12

=>N_s  =  21 \  turns
