Q77 / 90 · JEE Main 2019 (09 Jan Shift 2) · Physics

A power transmission line feeds input power at 2300 V to a step down transformer with its primary windings having 4000 turns. The output power is delivered at 230 V by the transformer. If the current in the primary of the transformer is 5 A and its efficiency is 90 %, the output current would be:

  • A
    35 A
  • B
    25 A
  • C
    50 A
  • Correct answer
    D
    45 A

Solution

Efficiency n=90%

⇒0.9×power in=Power out

0.9×2300×5=230×Iout

Iout=45 A

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
