Question
Name two factors on which the magnitude of an induced e.m.f. in the secondary coil depends.
Advertisements
Solution
The magnitude of e.m.f. induced in the secondary coil depends on the following two factors:
- The ratio of the number of turns in the secondary coil to the number of turns in the primary coil (i.e., turns ratio).
- The magnitude of e.m.f applied in the primary coil.

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.
