The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the operation of a transformer and the nature of the voltage supply provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Transformer**: A transformer consists of two coils, the primary and the secondary, wound around a magnetic core. The primary coil is connected to an AC voltage source, while the secondary coil provides the transformed voltage. 2. **Given Data**: - Number of turns in the primary coil (N1) = 100 turns - Number of turns in the secondary coil (N2) = 500 turns - Voltage applied to the primary (V1) = 220 V DC 3. **Transformers and AC Supply**: Transformers operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction, which requires a changing magnetic field to induce voltage in the secondary coil. This changing magnetic field is produced by an alternating current (AC) supply. 4. **DC Supply Characteristics**: A direct current (DC) supply, such as the 220 V DC mentioned, does not change over time; it remains constant. Therefore, it does not create a changing magnetic field. 5. **Conclusion on Voltage Induction**: Since the primary coil connected to a DC supply does not produce a changing magnetic field, no electromotive force (EMF) will be induced in the secondary coil. As a result, the voltage across the secondary coil will be zero. 6. **Final Answer**: The voltage developed across the secondary will be **0 V**.
