At the local playground, a 21-kg child sits on the right end of a horizontal teeter-totter, 1.8 m from the pivot point. On the l

eft side of the pivot an adult pushes straight down on the teeter-totter with a force of 151 N. Part A In which direction does the teeter-totter rotate if the adult applies the force at a distance of 3.0 m from the pivot?Part B
In which direction does the teeter-totter rotate if the adult applies the force at a distance of 2.5 m from the pivot?
(clockwise/counterclockwise)
Part C

Answer:

By convention a negative torque leads to clockwise rotation and a positive torque leads to counterclockwise rotation.

here weight of the child =21kgx9.8m/s2 = 205.8N

the torque exerted by the child Tc = - (1.8)(205.8) = -370.44N-m ,negative sign is inserted because this torque is clockwise and is therefore negative by convention.

torque exerted by adult Ta = 3(151) = 453N , counterclockwise torque.

net torque Tnet = -370.44+453 =82.56N , which is positive means counterclockwise rotation.

b) Ta = 2.5x151 = 377.5N-m

Tnet = -370.44+377.5 = 7.06N-m , positive ,counterclockwise rotation.

c)Ta = 2x151 = 302N-m

Tnet = -370.44+302 = -68.44N-m, negative,clockwise rotation.

While standing on a balcony a child drops a penny. The penny lands on the ground floor 1.5 s later. How fast was the penny trave
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

14.7 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s².

Height = 11.025 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) =?

We, can obtain the initial velocity of the penny as follow:

H = ½(v + u) t

11.025 = ½ (0 + u) × 1.5

11.025 = ½ × u × 1.5

11.025 = u × 0.75

Divide both side by 0.75

u = 11.025/0.75

u = 14.7 m/s

Therefore, the penny was travelling at 14.7 m/s before hitting the ground.

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
