A transformer operating at primary voltage 8kV8kV and secondary voltage 160V160V serves a load of 80kW80kW. Assuming the transformer to be ideal with purely resistive load and working on unity power factor, the loads in the primary and secondary circuit would be

Options

  1. A800Ω800Ω and 1.06Ω1 . 06Ω
  2. B10Ω10Ω and 500Ω500Ω
  3. C800Ω800Ω and 0.32Ω0 . 32Ω
  4. D1.06Ω1 . 06Ω and 500Ω500Ω

Correct answer

C. 800Ω800Ω and 0.32Ω0 . 32Ω

Step-by-step solution

Since the transformer is assumed to be purely resistive, the power of the transformer can be calculated with P=V2RP = \dfrac{{V}^{2}}{R}. Therefore,

For the primary coil,

P=(8×103)2RP=80×103WP = \dfrac{{\left(8 \times {10}^{3}\right)}^{2}}{{R}_{P}} = 80 \times {10}^{3}W

⇒RP=800Ω⇒ {R}_{P} = 800Ω

For the secondary coil,

P=(160)2RS=80×103WP = \dfrac{{\left(160\right)}^{2}}{{R}_{S}} = 80 \times {10}^{3}W

⇒RS=0.32Ω⇒ {R}_{S} = 0 . 32Ω
