Answer» a. Step down Transformer. b. \(\cfrac{I_p}{I_s}\) = \(\cfrac{V_s}{V_p}\) Vp = \(\cfrac{V_s\times I_s}{I_p}\) = \(\cfrac{200 \times 1}{0.5}\) = 400 V c. Mutual Induction: Keep two sets of coils side by side. When the direction of current flow or its intensity is changed in one, the magnetic flux around it also changes. An emf and current is induced in the secondary coil. This phenomenon is called mutual induction. |
