  • A
    Heating effect of current alone
  • B
    Hysteresis loss alone
  • C
    Both the hysteresis loss and heating effect of current
  • D
    None of the above

$A$ transformer with a turns ratio $\frac{N_{1}}{N_{2}} = \frac{50}{1}$ is connected to a $120 \ V$ $AC$ supply. If the primary and secondary circuit resistances are $1.5 \ k\Omega$ and $1 \ \Omega$ respectively,find the power output (in $W$).

$A$ step-down transformer has a $N_{S}$ to $N_{P}$ ratio of $1: 20$. If $8 \, V$ are developed across a $0.4 \, \Omega$ secondary load, the primary current will be: (in $ \, A$)
