A current of 5 ~A is flowing at 220 ~V in the primary coil of transformer. If the voltage produced in the secondary coil is 2200 ~V and 50 % of power is lost, then the current in secondary will be
Options
- A2.5 A
- B0.5 A
- C0.25 A
- D5 A
Correct answer
C. 0.25 A
Step-by-step solution
Let I be the current flowing through secondary coil. Current on primary (input) coil i=5 ~A Voltage in primary coil V=220 ~V Voltage in secondary coil V^ =2200 ~V Considering only 50 % power is transmitted: aligned & 0.5( Vi )=V^ I & 0.5 220 5=2200 I & I=0.25 ~A aligned
