The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the relationship between the voltages and the number of turns in the primary and secondary coils of a transformer. The formula we will use is: \[ \frac{V_s}{V_p} = \frac{N_s}{N_p} \] where: - \(V_s\) = voltage across the secondary coil - \(V_p\) = voltage across the primary coil - \(N_s\) = number of turns in the secondary coil - \(N_p\) = number of turns in the primary coil ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Identify the given values.** - Number of turns in primary coil, \(N_p = 20\) - Number of turns in secondary coil, \(N_s = 10\) - Voltage across primary, \(V_p = 220 \, \text{V}\) **Step 2: Write the transformer equation.** Using the transformer equation: \[ \frac{V_s}{V_p} = \frac{N_s}{N_p} \] **Step 3: Substitute the known values into the equation.** Substituting the known values into the equation: \[ \frac{V_s}{220} = \frac{10}{20} \] **Step 4: Simplify the fraction on the right side.** The fraction \(\frac{10}{20}\) simplifies to \(\frac{1}{2}\): \[ \frac{V_s}{220} = \frac{1}{2} \] **Step 5: Solve for \(V_s\).** To find \(V_s\), multiply both sides by 220: \[ V_s = \frac{1}{2} \times 220 \] \[ V_s = 110 \, \text{V} \] **Step 6: State the final answer.** The voltage across the secondary coil is \(110 \, \text{V}\). ### Final Answer: The voltage across the secondary is \(110 \, \text{AC V}\). ---
