Question

__ in a transformer occurs when some of the lines of flux from the primary coil do NOT get to the secondary coil?

a) Mutual Inductance
b) Eddy Current Loss
c) Hysteresis
d) Flux Loss

Answer 1

Answer:

D)Flux Loss

Explanation:

The secondary is wound outside the primary winding so that most of the flux generated by the primary winding goes thru the secondary winding. But of course some flux don't go thru the secondary winding, called leakage flux, causing imperfection magnetic coupling, which manifests itself as “leakage inductance”.
