उत्तर
Input ac voltage Vp = 240 V.
Number of turns in primary coil Np = 4800
No. of turns in secondary coil Ns = ?
Output voltage Vs = 8 V.
We know that
`"V"_"p"/"V"_"s" = "N"_"p"/"N"_"s"`
`"N"_"s" = ("N"_"p" xx "V"_"s")/ "V"_"p"`
= `(4800 xx 8) / 240`
= 160
The number of turns in the secondary coil is 160.

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.
Which of the following statement is true?
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.
