A 220 volts input is supplied to a transformer. The output circuit draws a current of 2.0 ampere at 440 volts. If the efficiency of the transformer is 80%, the current drawn by the primary windings of the transformer is
-
- 3.6 ampere
- 2.8 ampere
- 2.5 ampere
- 5.0 ampere
Correct Option: D
V2 | = 0.8 | I1 | |
V1 | I2 |
⇒ | = 0.8 | |
V1I1 |
V1 = 220 V, I2 = 2.0 A, V2 = 440 V
I1 = | V2I2 | × | 10 | = | 440 × 2 × 10 | = 5 A |
V1 | 8 | 220 × 8 |
