The transformer depends on the use of:
Correct answer: B. Alternating current
- A. Direct current
- B. Alternating current
- C. Direct and alternating current
- D. Direct and alternating voltage
Explanation
Transformers only work for alternating current, because you need a changing magnetic field. The size of the induced voltage depends on the number of turns on each coil - if there are less in the secondary coil, the voltage falls, and if there are more in the secondary coil, the voltage rises.

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.
