Why is the core of a transformer laminated?


Name the principle on which functioning of a transformer depends.


Devices which is used to convert high alternating current to low alternating current is ______.


In a transformer, the number of turns in the primary and the secondary are 410 and 1230 respectively. If the current in primary is 6A, then that in the secondary coil is


A transformer is employed to ______.

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. It is based on the phenomenon of mutual induction. A transformer essentially consists of two coils of insulated copper wire having different numbers of turns and wound on the same soft iron core.

The number of turns in the primary and secondary coils of an ideal transformer is 2000 and 50 respectively. The primary coil is connected to a main supply of 120 V and secondary coil is connected to a bulb of resistance 0.6 Ω.

The value of voltage across the secondary coil is ______.


The primary coil of a transformer has 800 turns and the secondary coil has 8 turns. It is connected to a 220 V ac supply. What will be the output voltage?


An ideal transformer converts 220 V a.c. to 3.3 kV a.c. to transmit a power of 4.4 kW. If primary coil has 600 turns, then alternating current in secondary coil is ______.


How do the input and output powers in a transformer compare? State the assumption made.
