The core of a transformer is made up of:

What is the transformation ratio of a transformer?

$A$ current of $5 \,A$ is flowing at $220 \,V$ in the primary coil of a transformer. If the voltage produced in the secondary coil is $2200 \,V$ and $50 \%$ of power is lost, then the current in the secondary will be (in $A$)

$1\, MW$ power is to be delivered from a power station to a town $10\, km$ away. One uses a pair of $Cu$ wires of radius $0.5\, cm$ for this purpose. Calculate the fraction of ohmic losses to power transmitted if
$(a)$ power is transmitted at $220\, V$. Comment on the feasibility of doing this.
$(b)$ a step-up transformer is used to boost the voltage to $11000\, V$,power is transmitted,then a step-down transformer is used to bring voltage to $220\, V$.
Given: $\rho_{Cu} = 1.7 \times 10^{-8}\, \Omega \cdot m$.

$A$ step-up transformer has $300$ turns of primary winding and $450$ turns of secondary winding. The primary is connected to $150 \ V$ and the current flowing through it is $9 \ A$. The current and voltage in the secondary are:

In a transformer,the core is made of soft iron to reduce:
