A transformer with 5500 turns in its primary winding is used between a 240V a.c supply and 120V kettle. Calculate the number of turns in the secondary winding

  • A. 11000
  • B. 2750
  • C. 460
  • D. 550

Correct Answer: B. 2750

Explanation

\(\frac{E_s}{E_p} = \frac{N_s}{N_p} ; \frac{120}{240}= \frac{N_s}{5500} thus N_s\)=2750
