    In a transformer, number of turns of primary coil and secondary coil are 5 and 4, respectively. If 220 V is applied in primary coil, then the ratio of the current in primary and  secondary coils will be :

    A)  5 : 8         

    B)  8 : 5

    C)  4 : 5         

    D)  5 : 4

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    If \[{{i}_{p}}\] and \[{{i}_{s}}\] be the currents in the primary and secondary coils at any instant, and the energy losses be zero, then power in secondary = power in primary \[{{V}_{s}}\times {{i}_{s}}={{V}_{p}}\times {{i}_{p}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{{{i}_{p}}}{{{i}_{s}}}=\frac{{{V}_{s}}}{{{V}_{p}}}=\frac{{{N}_{s}}}{{{N}_{p}}}=r\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{V}_{s}}=\frac{{{N}_{s}}}{{{N}_{p}}}\times {{V}_{p}}\] Given, \[{{V}_{p}}=220\,V,\,{{N}_{p}}=5,\,{{N}_{s}}=4\] \[\therefore \] \[{{V}_{s}}=\frac{4}{5}\times 220=176\,V\] Ratio of currents \[\frac{{{i}_{p}}}{{{i}_{s}}}=\frac{{{V}_{s}}}{{{V}_{p}}}=\frac{176}{220}=\frac{4}{5}\]
