STANDARD Physics Transformers MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

The primary and secondary coil of a transformer have 50 and 1500 turns respectively. If the magnetic flux ϕ linked with the primary coil is given by ϕ = ϕ₀ + 4t, where ϕ is in webers, t is time in seconds and ϕ₀ is a constant, the output voltage across the secondary coil is

A

120 volts

B

220 volts

C

30 volts

D

90 volts

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The induced emf in the secondary coil is given by the formula E = -N(dϕ/dt). With 1500 turns and dϕ/dt = 4 Wb/s, the voltage is 1500 * 4 = 6000 V. However, due to the turns ratio, the output voltage is reduced to 120 V.
