A step-up transformer is designed so that the outputof its secondary winding is 2000 V (rms) when the primarywinding is connected to a 110-V (rms) line voltage. (a)If there are 100 turns in the primary winding, how manyturns are there in the secondary winding? (b) If a resistorconnected across the secondary winding draws an rmscurrent of 0.75 A, what is the current in the primarywinding
A power plant generator produces 100 A at 15 kV(rms). A transformer is used to step up the transmissionline voltage to 150 kV (rms). (a) What is rms current in thetransmission line? (b) If the resistance per unit length of theline is 8.6 × 10−8 Ω/m, what is the power loss per meterin the line? (c) What would the power loss per meter be ifthe line voltage were 15 kV (rms)?
Neon signs require 12-kV for their operation. A transformer is to be used to change the voltage from 220-V (rms) ac to 12-kV (rms) ac. What must the ratio be of turns in the secondary winding to the turns in the primary winding? (b) What is the maximum rms current the neon lamps can draw if the fuse in the primary winding goes off at 0.5 A? (c) How much power is used by the neon sign when it is drawing the maximum current allowed by the fuse in the primary winding?
