Lamination of core of transformer is to decrease its:
Correct answer: A. Eddy currents
- A. Eddy currents
- B. Electric resistance
- C. Hysteresis
- D. Inductance
Explanation
The insulation between lamination sheets should be perfect so as to stop the flow of eddy currents.

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.

The direction of induced current is always so as to oppose the change which causes the current is:
Turns ratio of a step up transformer is 50. If 220 V A.C. is applied to its primary coil, voltage in the secondary coil will be:
Current can be induced in a coil by changing the area of coil placed in:
A rectangular loop of wire is placed perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field and then spun around one of its sides at frequency "P".The induced emf is maximum when:
Coils "P" and "Q" each have a large number of turns of insulated wire. When switch "S" is closed, the pointer of galvanometer "G" is deflected towards the left. To make the pointer of "G" deflect toward the right one could:
A circular loop of wire is positioned half in and half out of a square region of uniform magnetic field directed into the page, as shown. To induce a clockwise current in this loop:
