We can reduce eddy currents in the core of transformer by :
- A increasing the number of turns in the secondary coil
- B taking laminated core
- C making step down transformer
- D using a weak AC at high potential
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) taking laminated core
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Eddy currents are reduced by using a laminated core made of thin, insulated sheets of iron rather than a single solid block. This design increases the electrical resistance across the path of the induced currents, effectively breaking up large current loops and minimizing energy…

- Answer the question on the basis of passage given below:
Aldehydes are generally more reactive than ketones in nucleophilic addition reactions due to steric and electronic reasons. Sterically, the presence of two relatively large substituents in ketones hinders the approach of nucleophile to carbonyl carbon more than aldehydes having only one such substituent Electronically aldehydes are more reactive than ketones because two alkyl groups reduce the elctrophilicity of the carbonyl more effectively than in former.
