Question
- Complete the following diagram of a transformer and name the parts labelled A and B.
- Name the part you have drawn to complete the diagram in part (a).
- What is the material of this part named above?
- Is this transformer a step up or step down? Give reason.
Solution
- A is the primary coil. B is the secondary coil.
- We have drawn laminated core in the diagram.
- The material of this part is soft iron.
- This transformer a step-down transformer because the number of turns in primary coil is much greater than that in the secondary coil.
