Question
How are the e.m.f in the primary and secondary coils of a transformer related with the number of turns in these coils?
Advertisements
Solution
`"E"_"s"/"E"_"p" = "N"_"s"/"N"_"p"` = turns ratio n
where, s stands for secondary and p stands for primary.
i.e. `"E.M.f. in secondary coil"/"E.m.f. in primary coil" = "Number of turns in primary coil"/"Number of turns in secondary coil"`

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.
