  • 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 

    Explanation
    We know that, V2/V1 = N2/N1.

    Given V2 = 9v, N2/N1 = 0.1

    Therefore, 9v/V1 = 0.1

    V1 = 9v/0.1 = 90v.
