What happen when the polarity of transformer reversed?

You cannot 'reverse' the polarity of a transformer -it is either wound with 'additive polarity' or 'subtractive polarity', and there's not much you can do about it! For a single transformer, its polarity doesn't really matter. But if you are going to parallel two transformers, then you must know the polarity of each transformer in order to avoid harmful circulating currents in their secondary windings.


What happen when a negatively charged item gets near a neutral item?

What problems are there with reverse polarity?

Reversing polarity ,changes the rotation of the device you are changing polarity on.

No. Electromagnetic fields have polarity.


Would reverse polarity cause equipment to run even if switch is off?

The case of reverse polarity would only happen on a DC system. As to would it cause equipment to run when switched off, no, if the switch opens the equipment's power supply completely the device will not operate.


How often does the earths magnetic field change polarity?

The Earth's magnetic field has changed polarity hundreds of times in the geological past. This phenomenon is known as geomagnetic reversal. The frequency at which these reversals occur is not regular, but on average, it is estimated to happen every few hundred thousand years.


How does a drawing of polarity water and the bond polarities make a major contribution to the overall molecular polarity look?

The polarity is a vector quantity. The resultant of the polarity of bonds determines the polarity of the molecule. In CO2 there is polarity between the two C-O but the polarity is equal and opposite in direction so CO2 doesn't have polarity. If the polarity of bonds is not cancelled then the polarity remains in the molecule.
