प्रश्न
Can a transformer be used with direct current source? Give reason.
उत्तर
No, a transformer cannot be used with direct current source. The reason is that with direct current source, there will not be any change in the magnetic flux linked with the primary coil, so no e.m.f. will be induced in the secondary coil.

Long distance power transmissions
The large-scale transmission and distribution of electrical energy over long distances is done with the use of transformers. The voltage output of the generator is stepped up. It is then transmitted over long distances to an area sub-station near the consumers. There the voltage is stepped down. It is further stepped down at distributing sub-stations and utility poles before a power supply of 240 V reaches our homes.
We need to step-up the voltage for power transmission, so that ______.
A transformer operating at primary voltage 8 kV and secondary voltage 160 V serves a load of 80 kW. Assuming the transformer to be ideal with purely resistive load and working on unity power factor, the loads in the primary and secondary circuit would be:
