In a transformer,the number of turns in the primary coil and secondary coil are $5$ and $4$ respectively. If $240 \ V$ is applied to the primary coil,then the ratio of the current in the primary coil to the secondary coil is:

  • A
    $4 : 5$
  • B
    $5 : 4$
  • C
    $5 : 9$
  • D
    $9 : 5$

Why is a soft iron core used in a transformer?

$A$ transformer has $100$ turns in the primary coil and carries $8 \, A$ current. If the input power is $1 \, kW$, the number of turns required in the secondary coil to have $500 \, V$ output is:

"In a step-down transformer, the output current decreases." This statement is true or false?

$A$ 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 $A$)

$A$ step-down transformer has a turns ratio of $20:1$. If $8 \, V$ is applied across a $0.4 \, \Omega$ secondary coil, then the primary current will be: (in $ \, A$)
