Question

In a transformer the number of primary turns is four times that of the secondary turns. Its primary is connected to an AC source of voltage V . Then, current through its secondary is about four times that of the current through its primary., voltage across its secondary is about four times that of the voltage across its primary., voltage across its secondary is about two times that of the voltage across the primary., voltage across its secondary is about 1 2 2 times of the voltage across its primary.

In a transformer the primary and secondary currents are related by I s = N p N s I p And the voltage are related by V s = N s N p V p Where subscripts p and s refer to the primary and secondary of the transformer. Here, V p = V , N p N s = 4 ∴ I s = 4 I p And V s = 1 4 V = V 4
