JEE Main 2021 (Online) 16th March Evening Shift Physics - Alternating Current Question 113 English

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Auxiliary transformer
  • B Step down transformer
  • C Step-up transformer
  • D Auto transformer

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Voltage across secondary coil,

= Power across loadCurrent passin⁡g through load{{Power\,across\,load} \over {Current\,pas\sin g\,through\,load}}

⇒V2=PIL=600.11⇒V2=545.45\Rightarrow {V_2} = {P \over {{I_L}}} = {{60} \over {0.11}} \Rightarrow {V_2} = 545.45 V

Voltage across primary coil, V1 = 220V

⇒\Rightarrow V2 > V1

It means that step-up transformer is used.
