Principle of a transformer : When the alternating current flows through the primary coil and EMF is induced in the neighbouring (secondary) coil
(i) Let `(d phi)/(d t)` be the rate of change of flux through each turn of the primary and the secondary coil
`(epsilon_(1))/(epsilon_(2)) = -N_(1).(d phi)/(d t)//-N_(2).(d phi)/(d t) = (N_(1))/(N_(2))`
or `(V_(1))/(V_(2)) = (N_(1))/(N_(2))` ...(i)
(ii) But for an ideal transformer , `V_(1)I_(1) = V_(2)I_(2)`
`(V_(1))/(V_(2)) = (I_(2))/(I_(1))` ...(ii)
from equation (i) and (ii)
`(V_(1))/(V_(2)) = (N_(1))/(N_(2)) = (I_(2))/(I_(1))`
