Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) : Transformers - Quiz(MCQ)
A transformer has 6 windings in its primary core and 3 in its secondary coil. If the primary voltage is 440 V, find the secondary voltage.
A)
155 V
B)
165 V
C)
175 V
D)
185 V

Correct Answer : Option (B) :   165 V


Explanation : As we know, electric power is the same in both the coils of the transformer, so that the given relationship must be true

N1/N2 = V1/V2 = I2/I1

In the given question, we only need the number of turns (n) and voltage (V)

N1/N2 = V1/V2

Rearranging the above equation, we get,

V2 = V1N2/N1

Given,

V1 = 440, N1 = 6 Turns, N2 = 3 turns

V2 = V1N2/N1 = (440 V) (3 turns)/ (8 turns)

= 165 V
