4. A step-down transformer has a turns ratio less than 1.
Options
A. True
B. False
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer: True
Explanation:
Ns/Np is known as the turns ratio.
In step down transformer the number of turns in secondary winding (Ns) will be less than the number of turns in primary (Np).
Therefore, the ratio will be less than 1 for step down transformer.
Ex: Np = 10, Ns = 5; Turns ratio = 5/10 = 0.5.
