State the principle on which transformer works.
Draw a labeled diagram of a step-down transformer.
The following diagram in Fig.10.42 shows a coil of several turns of copper wire connected to a sensitive centre zero galvanometer G near a magnet NS. The coil is free to move in the direction shown in the diagram.
(i) Describe the observation if the coil is rapidly moved.
(ii) How would the observation be altered if (a) the coil has twice as many turns (b the coil was made to move three times as fast?
Name two kind of energy loss in a transformer. How is it minimized?
Mention the two characteristic properties of the material suitable for making core of a transformer.
A transformer is used to step up an alternating emf of 200V to 440V. If the primary coil has 1000 turns, calculate the number of turns in the secondary coil.
An a.c generator generates an emf 'ε' where ε = 314 Sin (50πt) volt. Calculate the frequency of emf ε.
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?
How do the input and output powers in a transformer compare? State the assumption made.
