उत्तर

The output of a step-down transformer is measured to be 24 V when connected to a 12-watt light bulb. The value of the peak current is `underline(1/sqrt(2) A)`.

Explanation:

It decreases voltage and increases current

VS < VP

NS < NP

ES < EP

iS < iP

RS < RP

tS < tP

kS < 1

According to the problem output/secondary voltage VS = 24 V

Power associated with secondary PS = 12 W

`I_S = P_S/V_S = 12/24` = 0.5 A

Amplitude of the current in the secondary winding

`I _O = I_S sqrt(2)`

= `(0.5)(1.414) = 0.707 = 1/sqrt(2) A`
