As we know that R1 = k^2 * R2.
R1 = 670/36 = 13.

@Reddy.

1/6 = 0.166.

When ratio is less than one mean step up use v2/v1 otherwise use v1/v2.

Guys it's turns ratio so n1/n2 =1/6 = 0.16.

And R1=R2*(turns ratio)^2 =470 * 0.025 = 13.

I totally confused.

Is it n1/n2 or n2/n1?

@Lakshman Rao.

That is transformation ratio = k.
Turns ratio = N1/N2.
Transformation ratio N2/N1 = k.

But they mentions turns ratio as 1:6.
We are taken turns ratio in transformer n2/n1.
So where n2 = 1 and n1 = 6.
Then what happen? Please explain.

The turn ratio n1/n2 =√ (r2/r1) = 13.

Transformatio ratio(k) = N2/N1.
Turns ratio(n) = N1/N2.
therefore, n = 1/k.

Don't be confused between transformation ratio & turns ratio.

Zin or Zsource = ZL(load impedance)/n^2. Here n is turned ratio.

Thank you lot indiabix. Friends I have doubt, is transformer ratio is constant or not? because I have seen.

Two types i.e. N2/N1 And N1/N2. Which one is correct ? please clear my confusion.
