V1 * I1 = V2 * I2.
v1 * V1/R1 = V2 * V2/R2,
V1 ^ 2 / R1 = V2 ^ 2/R2,
V1^2 / V2^2 = R1/ R2,
V1/V2 = √(R1/R2),
N1/N2 = √(80/320),
N1/N2 = 1/2 (Turns Ratio).

So, the Answer should be 1/2.
(8)

Given that,

R1=80 ohm
R2=320 ohm
Transformer Ratio,
K = N1/N2 = V1/V2=R2/R1=I2/I1.
K=R2/R1.
= 320/80=4.

As we know that V2/V1 = N2/N1 = I1/I2 = k.
So, V2/V1 = (V1/R1)*(R2/V2) = k.
=> (V2/V1)2 = R2/R1 = k.

Therefore, turns ratio(k) = sq. root of (R2/R1)
= sq. root of (320/80)
= 2.

Assuming the transformer to be ideal,as losses in primary and secondary are equal.

(I1)^2/R1=(I2)^2/R2.

(I1/I2)^2=R2/R1.

I1/I2=SQRT(320/80).

I1/I2=2.

So the answer is 2.

Hello, @Yash.

It should require to measure current and voltage of transformer from the secondary side. Then you will able to know KVA rating of the transformer!

Here is the little formula for impedance VS turns.
a= Turns Ratio, (Np/Ns)=Square Root of (Zp/Zs),
Square root of (380/20)=4/1,
Square root of (4/1)=2,
So 2.

Transformer rating is KVA, because iron&Cu losses depending upon the voltage and current only. Then not depending in the pf so its calls kva only.

In transformers we use the 50hz, because of how much of load is given it will be operated at the same frequency so that we use the constant.

Here r1=80ohm, r2=320 ohm
we know v2/v1=i1/i2
v2/v1=v1/r1*r2/v2
=> k=(v1/v2)*(r2/r1)
=> k=1/k*(320/80)
=>K sq=4
k=2
Ans=2

The turns ratio of a transformer is defined as the number of turns on its secondary divided by the number of turns on its primary.
