- Question
How many primary volts must be applied to a transformer with a turns ratio of 0.1 to obtain a secondary voltage of 9 V?
Options- A. 9 V
- B. 90 V
- C. 900 V
- D. 0.9 V
- Correct Answer
- 90 V
ExplanationWe know that, V2/V1 = N2/N1.
Given V2 = 9v, N2/N1 = 0.1
Therefore, 9v/V1 = 0.1
V1 = 9v/0.1 = 90v.For more detail: Step Down Transformer - Circuit with Simulation.
