State the principle on  which transformer works.

Advertisements

उत्तर

A transformer is a device with the help of which, a given alternating voltage can be increased or decreased to any desired value. The first type of transformer which delivers an output voltage smaller than the input voltage
is called a step down transformer. The second type of transformer which delivers an output voltage larger than the input voltage is called a step up transformer.

Principle of working of a transformer:
A transformer works on the principle that whenever the magnetic flux linked with a coil changes, an emf is induced in the neighbouring coil.
