COMEDK · Physics · 23. Alternating Current

A transformer of \(100 \%\) efficiency has 200 turns in the primary and 40000 turns in the secondary. It is connected to a \(220 \mathrm{~V}\) main supply and secondary feeds to a \(100 \mathrm{~K} \Omega\) resistance. The potential difference per turn is

  1. A 18 V
  2. B 11 V
  3. C 1.1 V
  4. D 25 V
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 1.1 V

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The transformer equation relates the primary voltage \(V_p\), secondary voltage \(V_s\), number of primary turns \(N_p\), and number of secondary turns \(N_s\) as \(\dfrac{V_p}{N_p} = \dfrac{V_s}{N_s}\). The potential difference per turn is defined as the ratio of the voltage…
