In a step-up transformer, the turn ratio is $1:10$. A resistance of $200 \, \Omega$ connected across the secondary is drawing a current of $0.5 \, A$. What is the primary voltage and current?

$A$ step-down transformer converts transmission line voltage from $11000 \, V$ to $220 \, V$. The primary of the transformer has $6000 \, \text{turns}$ and the efficiency of the transformer is $60 \%$. If the output power is $9 \, kW$, then the input power will be ........ $kW$.

$A$ transformer is a device which converts

$1\, MW$ power is to be delivered from a power station to a town $10\, km$ away. One uses a pair of $Cu$ wires of radius $0.5\, cm$ for this purpose. Calculate the fraction of ohmic losses to power transmitted if
$(a)$ power is transmitted at $220\, V$. Comment on the feasibility of doing this.
$(b)$ a step-up transformer is used to boost the voltage to $11000\, V$,power is transmitted,then a step-down transformer is used to bring voltage to $220\, V$.
Given: $\rho_{Cu} = 1.7 \times 10^{-8}\, \Omega \cdot m$.

$A$ generator produces a current of $100 \, A$ at $4000 \, V$. The voltage is stepped up to $2 \times 10^5 \, V$ by a transformer before being sent on a high voltage transmission line of resistance $50 \, \Omega$. The percentage of power loss in the transmission line is (in $\%$)
