Consider a transformer used to recharge rechargeable flashlight batteries, that has 500 turns in its primary coil, 4 turns in its secondary coil, and an input voltage of 120 V. What is the voltage output in volts, of the transformer used for to charge the batteries?

Answer:

Output Voltage = 0.96 volts

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know by the equation of transformer we have


(V_1)/(V_2) = (N_1)/(N_2)

here we know that


V_1 = voltage of primary coil = 120 Volts


V_2 = voltage of secondary coil


N_1 = number of turns in primary coil = 500


N_2 = number of turns in secondary coil = 4

now we will have


(120)/(V) = (500)/(4)


V = 0.96 Volts
