An ideal transformer is used to set up an alternating e.m.f. of \(220 \mathrm{~V}\) to \(4.4 \mathrm{kV}\) to transmit \(6.6 \mathrm{~kW}\) of power. The primary coil has 100 turns. What is current rating of secondary?

  1. A \(1.0 \mathrm{~A}\)
  2. B 0.75 A
  3. C \(2.5 \mathrm{~A}\)
  4. D \(1.5 \mathrm{~A}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(1.5 \mathrm{~A}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & P_0=V_s i_s \\ & 6.6=4.4 \times i_s \Rightarrow i_s=1.5 \mathrm{~A}\end{aligned}\)
