Power transformers are step-up or step-down Transformers used in the electricity transmission system, whereas distribution transformers are step-down transformers used in the electricity distribution system.

If a 120v transformer has 200 turns the secondary winding has 20 turns what is the secondary winding voltage?

The ratio of AC voltages is the same as the ratio of winding-turns in the transformer. Vp / Vs = Np / Ns (10 volts AC) / Vs = 200 / 20 = 10 Vs = (10 volts AC) / 10 = 1 volt AC.


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.


When to use Intensive vs selective vs exclusive distribution?

How do you work out the secondary voltage in a transformer?

The voltage ratio is the same as the turns ratio for an ideal transformer, and most transformers are close to being ideal. So use the following equation:Vs/Vp = Ns/Np

What will happen rated voltage applied in transformer short circuit?

I can only answer this from an actual problem I had in relation to the question.20-60VA 12V transformer supplying 2x20W lamps,both lamps had blown,so I bought 2x10W replacement lamps.On replacing the lamps,when I fitted the first and tried to power up,the lamp glowed briefly,then went out.It was only when I fitted the second lamp that both fittings lit up continuously,so in brief,the answer to the question is................the load won't operate.AnswerThe power rating of a load should never exceed the volt ampere rating of the transformer, otherwise the resulting load current may overheat the transformer. So the situation you describe is perfectly normal.The reason for the problem encountered by the writer of the original answer is not clear. A 60-V.A transformer should supply two 20-W lamps without any difficulty whatsoever. I suspect that the problem had nothing to do with the power rating of the lamps vs that of the transformer, and more to do with the voltage. For example, was the secondary voltage of the transformer higherthan the rated voltages of the lamps? If so, then the lamps would have burnt out.


How does the concept of globalization vs imperialism impact the distribution of power and resources on a global scale?

Globalization and imperialism both involve the spread of influence and control across borders, but they differ in their methods and goals. Globalization focuses on interconnectedness and mutual benefit, while imperialism often involves domination and exploitation. The impact on power and resources is complex, as globalization can lead to more equal distribution through trade and cooperation, while imperialism can concentrate power and resources in the hands of a few dominant nations or groups. Ultimately, the balance between globalization and imperialism shapes the distribution of power and resources on a global scale.


What is the advantage of relative frequency distribution vs distribution frequency?

These help to distribute the frequency much better than the latter. The noise might not be as loud or boisterous this way.


What is The difference between an empirical distribution and a theoretical distribution?

empirical distribution is based on your observation of out comes, it is based on real data. on the other hand theoretical is base on your theory regarding the distribution and the parameters, (i.e. normal/exponential...., u=5 vs u .5....and so on)


A stepup transformer has 100 turns on the primary coil and 500 turns on the secondary coil If the primary voltage is 120 volts what will be the secondary voltage?

A step-up transformer has 100 turns on the primary coil and 500 turns on the secondary coil. If there is 120 volts and 10 amps on the primary, what will be the current in the secondary? 2 amps.600v 2A
