Answer:
550V
Step - Down transformer
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of turns in primary coil = 300 turns
Secondary turns = 120 turns
Output voltage = 220V
Unknown:
Input voltage = ?
Type of transformer = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the expression below:
[tex]\frac{V_{out} }{V_{in} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{Ns}{Np}[/tex]
So insert the parameters and find Vin;
[tex]\frac{220}{Vin}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{120}{300}[/tex]
120Vin = 220 x 300
Vin = [tex]\frac{220 x 300}{120}[/tex] = 550V
Since the input voltage is greater than the output voltage, this is step - down transformer.
