For a 100% efficient step down transformer

Correct answer: C. input power is same as the output power

  • A. voltage in primary and secondary are equal
  • B. current in primary and secondary are equal
  • C. input power is same as the output power
  • D. output power is zero

Explanation

If it is assumed that a transformer is 100% efficient then the power in the primary coil has to be equal to the power in the secondary coil, as per the law of conservation of energy.

About Electromagnetism

Magnetic flux density and magnetic flux describe the strength of a magnetic field and the field passing through a surface. A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its velocity and may follow circular or helical motion, depending on the angle between velocity and field.
