Question

In a transformer secondary current is 1 A and primary current is 0.5 A. Which type of transformer is this?

Answer 1

Answer:

In a step up transformer, primary power is 50W and output voltage is 100V. If the current in the primary is 1A.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step down transformer.

Explanation:

Transformers are classified into two based on their voltage conversion rate. In a step-up transformer, the voltage in the primary is less than that in the secondary coil. In a step-down transformer, the voltage in the primary is greater than that in the secondary.

For a step-up transformer, the value of current is higher in the primary coil. For a step-down transformer, the value of current is higher in the secondary coil.

Here the value of current in the primary coil is 0.5 A and the current in the secondary coil is 1 A. So it is a step-down transformer.
