In some places, insect "zappers," with their blue lights, are a familiar sight on a summer's night. These devices use a
high voltage to electrocute insects. One such device uses an ac voltage of 3970 V, which is obtained from a
standard 120-V outlet by means of a transformer. If the primary coil has 27 turns, how many turns are in the
secondary coil?

Hi,
Does Quantum physics theory means all branches for example quantum relativity, Quantum mechanics, Quantum field theory, and string theory? Can you explain each one of them?

Dear Scientist in physics , How are doing, my name is Yahya from Saudi Arabia and currently in my first semester to pursue Master's degree in physics. I have been watching all interviews of some scientists in physics on YouTube Channel and somthing has got my mind. I studied my bachelor 's degree in biology and I have been contacting Professor's Bruce Lipton many times and he explained epigenatic well. He was talking about physics many times. He said if you want to understand who we are and how we think, you need to understand Physics well. So I have decided to study physics. I have some questions : Why is the community of physics are divided? What is the difference between Quantum physics, quantum field theory, Quantim theory, and classical physics? What is quantum consciousness theory as well. What do they mean by wave function collapse? Why professor Roger's always has another opinions in quantum consciousness theory??
Best Regards,
Yahya

- A uniform horizontal disk of radius 5.50 m turns without friction at w = 2.55 rev/s on a vertical axis through its center, as in the figure below. A feedback mechanism senses the angular speed of the disk, and a drive motor at A ensures that the angular speed remain constant while a m = 1.20 kg block on top of the disk slides outward in a radial slot. The block starts at the center of the disk at time t = 0 and moves outward with constant speed v = 1.25 cm/s relative to the disk until it reaches the edge at t = 360 s. The sliding block experiences no friction. Its motion is constrained to have constant radial speed by a brake at B, producing tension in a light string tied to the block.

While walking around the fairgrounds, you discover a new game of skill. A thin rod of mass M = 0.505 kg and length = 2.70 m hangs from a friction-free pivot at its upper end as shown in the figure. Pivot Velcro M Incoming Velcro-covered ball m The front surface of the rod is covered with Velcro. You are to throw a Velcro-covered ball of mass m = 1.25 kg at the rod in an attempt to make it swing backward and rotate all the way across the top. The ball must stick to the rod at all times after striking it. If you cause the rod to rotate over the top position (that is, rotate 180° opposite of its starting position), you win a stuffed animal. Your friend volunteers to try his luck. He feels that the most torque would be applied to the rod by striking it at its lowest end. While he prepares to aim at the lowest point on the rod, you calculate how fast he must throw the ball to win the stuffed animal with this…arrow_forward
