The core of a transformer is laminated because:
1. | Energy losses due to eddy currents may be minimized |
2. | The weight of the transformer may be reduced |
3. | Rusting of the core may be prevented |
4. | Ratio of voltage in primary and secondary may be increased |
Turn ratio of a step-up transformer is \(1: 25\). If current in load coil is \(2~\text{A}\), then the current in primary coil will be:
1. | \(25~\text{A}\) | 2. | \(50~\text{A}\) |
3. | \(0.25~\text{A}\) | 4. | \(0.5~\text{A}\) |
Assertion (A): | If the terminals of the primary of a transformer are connected across a battery then no emf is induced across the secondary in a steady state. |
Reason (R): | The battery provides a steady current, so there is no change in flux linked with the secondary. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
The primary and secondary coils of a transformer have 50 and 1500 turns respectively. If the magnetic flux linked with the primary coils is given by \(\phi=\phi_0+4t\), where \(\phi\) is in webers, t is time in seconds, and \(\phi_0\) is a constant, the output voltage across the secondary coil is:

In a step-up transformer, the turn ratio is 1: 20. The resistance of 100 connected across the secondary is drawing a current of 2 A. What are the primary voltage and current respectively?

When a step-down transformer is connected to a 2400 volt line, the output load receives 80 amps of current. The ratio of the turns in the primary and secondary coils is 20:1. If transformer efficiency is 100%, then the current flowing in the primary coil will be:

3. | 4 A | 4. | 1.5 A |
In the transformer shown in the figure, the ratio of the number of turns of the primary to the secondary is N1/N2=1/50. If a voltage source of 10 V is connected across the primary, then the induced current through the load of 10 kΩ in the secondary is:
1. \(\frac{1}{20}~A\)
2. zero
3. \(\frac{1}{10}~A\)
4. \(\frac{1}{5}~A\)
A transformer has an efficiency of 90% when working on a 200 V and 3 kW power supply. If the current in the secondary coil is 6 A, the voltage across the secondary coil and the current in the primary coil, respectively, are:
1. 300 V, 15 A
2. 450 V, 15 A
3. 450 V, 13.5 A
4. 600 V, 15 A
