A couple consists of two parallel forces that are equal in magnitude, opposite in sense and do not share a line of action. ... For example, the forces that two hands apply to turn a steering wheel are often (or should be) a couple. Each hand grips the wheel at points on opposite sides of the shaft.

Answer:

Two equal and opposite parallel forces not acting along the same line, form a couple. A couple is always needed to produce the rotation.

For example, turning a key in a lock and turning a steering wheel.

The secondary coil of a neon sign transformer provides 7500 V at 0.01 A. The primary coil operates on 120 V. What is the input c
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

0.625 A

Explanation:

Vs = 7500 V, Is = 0.01 A

Vp = 120 V

Let the primary current be Ip.

As the transformer is ideal, so input power is equal to the output power

Vp x Ip = Vs x Is

120 x Ip = 7500 x 0.01

Ip = 0.625 A

Help please :pensive:
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

0m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s

Final velocity  = 8m/s

Time taken  = 4s

Unknown:

Acceleration of the boat = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

        A = \frac{v - u}{t}

A is the acceleration

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

    Insert the parameters and solve;

  A = \frac{8-8}{4}   = 0m/s²
