A transformer is having 2100 turns in the primary and 4200 turns in the secondary. An a.c. source 120 V, 10 A is connected to the primary. The secondary voltage and current are :
120 V, 10 A
240 V, 10 A
120 V, 20 A
240 V, 5 A
The primary and secondary of a transformer are
electrically coupled
capacitively coupled
magnetically coupled
none of these
A transformer is used to reduce the mains supply of 220 V to 11 V. If currents in the primary and secondary are 5 A and 90 A respectively, efficiency of the transformer is
75%
60%
40%
90%
Quantity that remains unchanged in a transformer is
voltage
current
frequency
Given below are two statements, one labelled as Assertion (A) and the other labelled as Reason (R)
