The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the power of the secondary coil in a transformer, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Basics of a Transformer A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy between two or more circuits through electromagnetic induction. It consists of primary and secondary coils (windings) and operates on the principle of alternating current (AC). **Hint:** Remember that transformers work on the principle of electromagnetic induction and involve primary and secondary coils. ### Step 2: Recall the Power Relationship In an ideal transformer, the power input to the primary coil (P1) is equal to the power output from the secondary coil (P2). This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ P_1 = P_2 \] **Hint:** Think about the conservation of energy principle, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. ### Step 3: Consider the Voltage and Current Relationship The relationship between the voltages (V1 and V2) and currents (I1 and I2) in the primary and secondary coils can be expressed as: \[ \frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{N_1}{N_2} \] \[ \frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{N_2}{N_1} \] where N1 and N2 are the number of turns in the primary and secondary coils, respectively. **Hint:** Keep in mind that the transformer can either step up or step down the voltage, which affects the current inversely. ### Step 4: Analyze Power in Terms of Voltage and Current The power in each coil can be expressed as: \[ P_1 = V_1 \times I_1 \] \[ P_2 = V_2 \times I_2 \] Since \( P_1 = P_2 \), we can conclude that: \[ V_1 \times I_1 = V_2 \times I_2 \] **Hint:** Use the relationships between voltage and current to understand how power is conserved in the transformer. ### Step 5: Conclusion In an ideal transformer, the power of the secondary coil is equal to the power of the primary coil. Therefore, the answer to the question is that the power of the secondary coil is the same as that of the primary coil. **Final Answer:** The power of the secondary coil is equal to the power of the primary coil.
