**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify Types of Energy Losses in a Transformer:** - In a transformer, energy losses primarily occur due to: - **Copper Losses:** These losses are caused by the resistance in the winding of the transformer, leading to heat generation when current flows through the copper wire. - **Iron Losses:** These losses occur in the core of the transformer and are further divided into: - **Hysteresis Losses:** These arise due to the magnetization and demagnetization of the core material as the alternating current changes direction. - **Eddy Current Losses:** These are induced currents that flow in the core material, leading to energy loss. ...
