6.
The primary winding of a transformer has 110 V ac across it. What is the secondary voltage if the turns ratio is 8?
8.8 V
88 V
880 V
8,800 V
Answer: Option
Explanation:

V2/V1 = N2/N1

Turns ratio = N2/N1 = 8.

V2/110 = 8

V2 = 8 x 110

V2 = 880v.


7.
To step 110 V ac down to 20 V ac, the turns ratio must be
5.5
18
0.18
0.018
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Vp/Vs = Np/Ns

Vs = (Ns/Np)Vp

We required turns ratio i.e., (Ns/Np)

= Vs/Vp

= 20/110

= 0.181818182

[Note: p - primary; s - secondary]

For step down transfer, the turns ratio will be less than 1.
