Best Answer

Output from secondary is about 6.8V rms, on no load.

On the primary side, you have 140 / 120 = .86 volts per turn. Therefore, on the secondary side you will have 8*.86 = 6.8 volts.

If a transformer has 20 primary windings and 100 secondary windings and the secondary voltage is 25 what is the primary voltage?

Transformer step-up/step-down voltage is turns-ratio, so if a transformer has 20 primary windings and 100 secondary windings (a turns-ratio of 1 to 5) and the secondary voltage is 25, then is the primary voltage is 5.


What are the output voltage and current of a transformer determined by?

The secondary (output) voltage is determined by the primary voltage and the turns ratio of the transformer. The secondary current is determined by the secondary voltage and the load resistance.


How many turns in secondary coil in Transformer?

It depends on the type of transformer.If it is a step up transformer the number of turns in secondary side is higher than primary.Stepdown means it will have fewer number of windings on the secondary side turns when compared with the primary side.An isolation transformer has the same number of windings on the primary as the secondary.The ratio of the windings is proportional to the increase or decrease in the secondary voltage. For example, twice the windings doubles the voltage and 1/2 the windings halves the secondary voltage. The isolation transformer is denoted as 1:1 and has the same voltage on the secondary as the primary.The ratio of secondary turns to primary turns is the same as the ratio of secondary voltage to primary voltage.e.g. if the secondary to primary turns ratio is 1/10, then the secondary voltage will be one tenth of the primary voltage.


What is the secondary voltage of a transformer with the turn ratio of 5 to1 and primary volts of 200?

The secondary voltage of a transformer with a turns ratio of 5 to 1, and primary voltage of 200 is 40. (5 to 1)


Is it a step up or a step down a transformer has 20 primary windings and 100 secondary windings the secondary voltage is 25v?

If a transformer has 20 primary windings and 100 secondary windings, it is a step up transformer. If the secondary voltage is 25v, the primary voltage will be 5v, because the turns ratio is 20 to 100, or 1 to 5.

Can infinite voltage be given at transformer primary?

no, infinite voltage can't be given to the primary of the transformer....if the secondary is connected to the load, then over voltage will damage the load, if secondary is open circuited, then the infinite voltage can breakdown the transformer internal insulation,


What type of voltage is passed trough a transformer?

Voltage doesn't 'pass through' anything! Voltage is another word for 'potential difference', and is measured between two points in a circuit. For a transformer to work, it's necessary to apply an a.c. voltage across the transformer's primary terminals.


What are the voaltg in isolation transformer?

The function of an isolation transformer is to electrically-isolate the secondary circuit from the primary circuit, without changing the voltage levels. So, its secondary voltage will be the same as the primary voltage.

How much is the secondry voltage vs with a primary voltage is vp equals 120v?

As far as a transformer is concerned, the secondary voltage Vs value cannot be determined by the primary voltage Vp alone. For the simplest of calculations the transformer primary-secondary turn ratio must be known. For an ideal transformer ( and practicaly ideal transformers don't exist as there will be various losses in the transformer cores and windings), the simple equation relating secondary voltage to primary voltage would be : Vs/Vp=Ns/Np=Ip/Is where Ns is the number of winding turns in the secondary of the transformer, and Np the primary. Ip is the primary current and Is the secondary.
