(a) What is the voltage output of a transformer used for rechargeable flashlight batteries if its primary has 500 turns, its secondary has 8 turns, and the input voltage is 124 V? V (b) What input current is required to produce a 4.00 A output? mA (c) What is the power input? W

Respuesta :

Answer:

(a) 1.984 V

(b) 0.064 A

(c) 7.94 Watt

Explanation:

number of turns in primary coil, Np = 500

number of turns in secondary coil, Ns = 8

Voltage in primary coil, Vp = 124 V

(a)

Let the output voltage is Vs.

By using the formula for the transformer

[tex]\frac{V_{s}}{V_{p}}=\frac{N_{s}}{N_{p}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{V_{s}}{124}=\frac{8}{500}[/tex]

Vs = 1.984 V

(b)

Let the input current is Ip.

Output current, Is = 4 A

[tex]\frac{I_{p}}{I_{s}}=\frac{N_{s}}{N_{p}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{I_{p}}{4}=\frac{8}{500}[/tex]

Ip = 0.064 A

(c)

Input power, P = Vp x Ip

P = 124 x 0.064

P = 7.94 Watt

A. The output voltage for the transformer is 1.984 V

B. The input current required to produce 4 A is 64 mA

C. The input power of the transformer is 7.936 W

A. How to determine the output voltage

  • Primary turns (Nₚ) = 500 turns
  • Secondary turns (Nₛ) = 8 turns
  • Input voltage (Primary voltage) (Vₚ) = 124 V
  • Secondary voltage (Vₛ) = ?

Nₛ / Nₚ = Vₛ / Vₚ

8 / 500 = Vₛ / 124

Cross multiply

500 × Vₛ = 8 × 124

Divide both side by 500

Vₛ = (8 × 124) / 500

Vₛ = 1.984 V

B. How to determine the the input current

  • Primary turns (Nₚ) = 500 turns
  • Secondary turns (Nₛ) = 8 turns
  • Secondary current (Iₛ) = 4 A
  • Input current (Primary current) (Iₚ) =?

Iₚ / Iₛ = Nₛ / Nₚ

Iₚ / 4 = 8 / 500

Cross multiply

Iₚ × 500 = 4 × 8

Divide both side by 500

Iₚ = (4 × 8) / 500

Iₚ = 0.064

Multiply by 1000 to express in mA

Iₚ = 0.064 × 1000

Iₚ = 64 mA

C. How to determine the input power

  • Input current (Primary current) (Iₚ) = 64 mA = 0.064 A
  • Input voltage (Primary voltage) (Vₚ) = 124 V
  • Input power (Primary power) Pₚ =?

Pₚ = IₚVₚ

Pₚ = 0.064 × 124

Pₚ = 7.936 W
