Question
The primary and secondary coils of a transformer each have an inductance of 200 x 10-6 H. The mutual inductance between the windings is 4 x 10-6 H. What percentage of the flux from one coil reaches the other?
Solution 1
Data: Lp = LS = 2 × 10-4 H, M= 4 × 10-6 H
M = K`sqrt("L"_"p""L"_"S")`
The coupling coefficient is
K = `"M"/sqrt("L"_"p""L"_"S") = (4 xx 10^-6)/sqrt((2xx10^-4)^2) = (4 xx 10^-6)/(2 xx 10^-4)` = 2 × 10-2
Therefore, the percentage of flux of the primary reaching the secondary is 0.02 × 100% = 2 %
Solution 2
Self-inductance, L = 200 × 10-6 H
Mutual inductance, M = 4 × 10-6 H
Percentage of flux transfer = `"M"/"L" xx 100`
= `(4 xx 10^-6)/(200 xx 10^-6) xx 100`
= 2%
2 % of the flux from one coil reaches the other.

The teachers of Geeta’s school took the students on a study trip to a power generating station, located nearly 200 km away from the city. The teacher explained that electrical energy is transmitted over such a long distance to their city, in the form of alternating current (ac) raised to a high voltage. At the receiving end in the city, the voltage is reduced to operate the devices. As a result, the power loss is reduced. Geeta listened to the teacher and asked questions about how the ac is converted to a higher or lower voltage.

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.
