If a step-up transformer has a primary coil with 15 turns, how many turns would be required in the secondary coil in order to increase the voltage from 80 volts to 160 volts? A. 8 turns B. 30 turns C. 80 turns D. 160 turns

Answer:


N_2=30turns

So option (b) will be correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that there is a step up transformer in which number of turns in primary coil is 15

That is,
N_1=15

Primary voltage
V_1=80volt, and secondary voltage
V_2=160volt

We have to find the number of turns in the secondary \

We know that for the transformer


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


(15)/(N_2)=(80)/(160)


N_2=30turns

So option (b) will be correct option
