Question

An ideal neon sign transformer provides 9130 V at 51.0 mA with an input voltage of 240 V. Calculate the transformer's input power and current.

Answer 1

Input power = 465.63 W

current = 1.94 A

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the following data to answer this question

V = 9130

i = 0.051

the input power = VI

I = 51.0 mA = 0.051

= 9130 * 0.051

= 465.63 watts

the current = 465.63/240

= 1.94A

therefore the input power is 465.63 wwatts

while the current is 1.94A

the input power is the same thing as the output power.
