Finally, what is the correct answer?

Raghuvamsi said:   9 years ago
Yes, @Ahmed.

The answer should be 0.13.

Here the problem is asking turns ratio, not transformation ratio.

San said:   9 years ago
Is it same for V2/V1, R2/R1 & I1/I2?

Mehaboob Nadaf said:   9 years ago
N2/N1 = V2/V1.
900/120 = K=7.5.

Please help me that where we can use n1/n2 and where we can use n2/n1?

Turns ratio means ratio of high voltage side to low voltage side turns.

Rajan India said:   1 decade ago
Turns ratio k = v2/v1.

Here, k = Turns ratio of transformer.

v2 = Secondary voltage of transformer.

v1 = Primary voltage of transformer.

The ratio of a four-to-one step-down transformer is written as 4:1.The ratio of a one-to-four step-up transformer should be written as 1:4. Notice in the two ratios that the value of the primary winding is always stated first.

Amarjyoti Sarmah said:   1 decade ago
Is turns ratio different for step up and step down transformer?

N2/N1 is transformation ratio while,

N1/N2 is turns ratio, Is not it right. I am very much confused. Please help me?

Sirisha said:   1 decade ago
Turns ratio=N1/N2. (step down).
Turns ratio=N2/N1. (step up).
If not mentioned the type of tx by default consider step up.
