Class 12th Physics 2017 Set1 Delhi Board Paper Solution

Question 24

Draw a labelled diagram of a step-up transformer. Obtain the ratio of secondary to primary voltage in terms of number of turns and currents in the two coils.

Answer

Below is the diagram of step-up transformer:

Let the alternating current, alternating voltage and the numbe of turns in primary and secondary coils are (I1, I2),(V1,V2)  and (n1, n2) respectively.

Magnetic flux linked with two coils is proportional to their number of turns. So, if φs and φp are the values of magnetic flux linked with primary and secondary coil, then

According to Faraday’s law, induced emf produced is given by

If transformer is 100% efficient, then there is no loss of energy in the process.
