How does a transformer affect the voltage and current?

  • A
    It increases both voltage and current.
  • B
    It decreases both voltage and current.
  • C
    It increases voltage and decreases current,or vice versa,based on the turns ratio.
  • D
    It keeps both voltage and current constant.

$A$ step-down transformer is used on a $1000\,V$ line to deliver $20\,A$ at $120\,V$ at the secondary coil. If the efficiency of the transformer is $80\%$,the current drawn from the line is ......$A$.

In a step-up transformer, the turn ratio is $1:10$. A resistance of $200 \, \Omega$ connected across the secondary is drawing a current of $0.5 \, A$. What is the primary voltage and current?

In a transformer,the mutual inductance between the primary and secondary coils is $0.5 \ H$. The resistances of the primary and secondary coils are $20 \ \Omega$ and $5 \ \Omega$ respectively. To induce a current of $0.4 \ A$ in the secondary coil,what is the required rate of change of current in the primary coil in $A/s$?

$A$ current of $5 \text{ A}$ is flowing at $220 \text{ V}$ in a primary coil of a transformer. If the voltage produced in the secondary coil is $2200 \text{ V}$ and $50 \%$ of power is lost, then the current in the secondary coil will be (in $\text{ A}$)
