प्रश्न

State the principle on  which transformer works.

उत्तर

A transformer is a device with the help of which, a given alternating voltage can be increased or decreased to any desired value. The first type of transformer which delivers an output voltage smaller than the input voltage
is called a step down transformer. The second type of transformer which delivers an output voltage larger than the input voltage is called a step up transformer.

Principle of working of a transformer:
A transformer works on the principle that whenever the magnetic flux linked with a coil changes, an emf is induced in the neighbouring 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.
