A transformer with 5500 turns in its primary winding is used between a 240V a.c supply and 120V kettle. Calculate the number of turns in the secondary winding

A.

11000

B.

2750

C.

460

D.

550

E.

232

Correct answer is B

\(\frac{E_s}{E_p} = \frac{N_s}{N_p} ; \frac{120}{240}= \frac{N_s}{5500} thus N_s\)=2750
