Correct answer: C. hum
- A. magnetostrication
- B. boo
- C. hum
- D. zoom
Explanation
The audible noise produced by magnetically induced lamination vibrations is called transformer hum. Magnetostriction is the physical deformation mechanism that helps produce this hum, not the name of the noise itself.
