Derive an expression for ratio of e.m.f.s and currents in terms of number of turns in primary and secondary coil.
Name two factors on which the magnitude of an induced e.m.f. in the secondary coil depends.
Why is the core of a transformer laminated?
Explain why an induced current must flow in such a direction so as to oppose the change producing it.
A transformer lowers e.m.f. from 220 V to 15 V. If the number of turns in primary are 3520, how many turns are in the secondary coil?
A step-down transformer connected to an ac mains supply of 220 V is made to operate at 11 V, 44 W lamp. Ignoring power losses in the transformer, what is the current in the primary circuit?
For an LCR circuit, the power transferred from the driving source to the driven oscillator is P = I2Z cos φ.
- Here, the power factor cos φ ≥ 0, P ≥ 0.
- The driving force can give no energy to the oscillator (P = 0) in some cases.
- The driving force cannot syphon out (P < 0) the energy out of oscillator.
- The driving force can take away energy out of the oscillator.
