उत्तर

Principle:

The principle of a transformer is the mutual induction between two coils. That is, when an electric current passing through a coil changes with time, an emf is induced in the neighbouring coil.


Construction of transformer

Construction:

  1. In the simple construction of transformers, there are two coils of high mutual inductance wound over the same transformer core.
  2. The core is generally laminated and is made up of a good magnetic material like silicon steel. Coils are electrically insulated but magnetically linked via transformer core.
  3. The coil across which alternating voltage is applied is called primary coil P and the coil from which output power is drawn out is called secondary coil S.
  4. The assembled core and coils are kept in a container which is filled with suitable medium for better insulation and cooling purpose.

A group of students while coming from the school noticed a box marked "Danger H.T. 2200 V" at a substation in the main street. They did not understand the utility of a such a high voltage, while they argued, the supply was only 220 V. They asked their teacher this question the next day. The teacher thought it to be an important question and therefore explained to the whole class.

Answer the following questions:

(i) What device is used to bring the high voltage down to low voltage of a.c. current and what is the principle of its working ?

(ii) Is it possible to use this device for bringing down the high dc voltage to the low voltage? Explain

(iii) Write the values displayed by the students and the teacher.


Find the ratio of primary and secondary currents in terms of turn ratio in an ideal transformer.
