उत्तर
Given data:
Vp = 220 V, Ps = 88 W, Vs = 11 V
Transformation ratio K = `"V"_"s"/"V"_"p"`
K = `11/220 = 1/20 = 1 : 20 = 1/20`
Current in the primary Ip = ?
`"P"_"S" = "V"_"S" "I"_"S"`
`"I"_"S" = "P"_"S"/"V"_"S" = 88/11` = 8 A
`therefore "I"_"p"/"I"_"S" = "K"`
`"I"_"p" = "KI"_"S"`
`therefore "I"_"p" = 1/20 xx 8 = 2/5 = 0.4`
Ip = 0.4 A

Read the following paragraph and answer the question:

Long distance power transmissions
The large-scale transmission and distribution of electrical energy over long distances is done with the use of transformers. The voltage output of the generator is stepped up. It is then transmitted over long distances to an area sub-station near the consumers. There the voltage is stepped down. It is further stepped down at distributing sub-stations and utility poles before a power supply of 240 V reaches our homes.
If the secondary coil has a greater number of turns than the primary, ______.
A transformer is essentially an a.c. device. It cannot work on d.c. It changes alternating voltages or currents. It does not affect the frequency of a.c. It is based on the phenomenon of mutual induction. A transformer essentially consists of two coils of insulated copper wire having different numbers of turns and wound on the same soft iron core.
The number of turns in the primary and secondary coils of an ideal transformer is 2000 and 50 respectively. The primary coil is connected to a main supply of 120 V and secondary coil is connected to a bulb of resistance 0.6 Ω.
