प्रश्न
A transformer lowers e.m.f. from 220 V to 15 V. If 400 W power is given in primary, calculate (i) the current in primary coil and (ii) the current in secondary coil.

उत्तर
(i) We know that Power = Ip × Ep
or 400 = Ip × 220
∴ Ip = 1.8 A
(ii) Using Ip × Ep = Is × Es
∴ `"I"_"s" = ("I"_"p" xx "E"_"p")/"E"_"s"`
`"I"_"s" = (1.8 xx 220)/15`
= 26.4 A.

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.
We need to step-up the voltage for power transmission, so that ______.
