The current in the primary coil of a transformer is 2.5A. If the coil has 50 turns and the secondary250 turns, calculate the current in the secondary coil. Neglect energy losses in the transformer
-
A.
0.2A
-
B.
0.5A
-
C.
2.5A
-
D.
5A
-
E.
12.5A
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
\(\frac{I_s}{I_p}=\frac{n_p}{n_s}, I_s= \frac{I_pn_p}{n_s}=\frac{2.5\times50}{250}\Rightarrow0.5A\)
