    A step-down transformer reduces the voltage of a transmission line from 2200 V to 220 V. The power delivered by it is 880 W and its efficiency is 88%. The input current is

    A) 4.65 mA                               

    B) 0.045 A

    C) 0.45 A                                   

    D) 4.65 A

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Efficiency of transformer, \[\eta =\frac{Output\text{ }power}{Input\text{ }power}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{88}{100}=\frac{880}{{{P}_{i}}}\]  \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{P}_{i}}=1000\,W\] Input current, \[{{I}_{p}}=\frac{{{P}_{i}}}{{{V}_{i}}}\]                                 \[=\frac{1000}{2200}\] \[=0.45A\]
