A power transmission line feeds input power at 2300 V a step down transformer with its primary windings having 4000 turns. The output power is delivered at 230 V by the transformer. If the current in the primary of the transformer is 5A and its efficiency is `90%`, the output current would be :

A

45 A

B

50 A

C

20 A

D

25 A

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

(a ) Efficiency `eta=0.9=(P_("output"))/(P_("input"))=(V_(S)I_(S))/(V_(P)I_(P))`
`I_(S)=(0.9xx2300xx5)/(230)` =45 A
Hence option (A) is correct .

Case study : Read the following paragraph and answers the questions : The large-scale transmission and distribution of electrical energy over long distances is done with the use of transformers. The voltage output of the generator is stepped-up. It is then transmitted over long distances to an area sub-station near the consumers. There the voltage is stepped down. It is further stepped down at distributing sub-stations and utility poles before a power supply of 240 V reaches our homes.
