Answers
Answer:
Transformer : A transformer is a device with the help of which, a given alternating voltage can be increased or decreased to any desired value. The first type of transformer which delivers an output voltage smaller than the input voltage is called a step down transformer. The second type of transformer which delivers an output voltage larger than the input voltage is called a step up transformer.
Principle : An e.m.f. is induced in the secondary coil due to the changes of current in a neighboring coil.
Construction: A simple transformer is as shown in figure. It consists of a closed, laminated soft iron core on which two coils having different number of turns are wound. The coils are made of insulated wire. The coil to which the A.C. input voltage is applied is called the primary coil and the coil across which the A.C. output voltage is obtained is called the secondary coil.
Working: When an alternating voltage is applied to the primary, the resulting current produces an alternating magnetic flux which links the secondary and induces an emf in it. The value of this emf depends on the number of turns in the secondary. Let ϕ be the flux in each turn in the core at time t due to current in the primary when a voltage V
p
is applied to it.
Then the induced emf or voltage ϵ

The alternating flux ϕ also induces an emf, called back emf in the primary. This is ϵ

If this were not so, the primary current would be infinite since the primary has zero resistance(as assumed). If the secondary is an open circuit or the current taken from it is small, then to a good approximation ϵ
