Primary winding of a transformer is determined by _________.

which winding is connected to the source

which winding is nearer to the load

which side has the highest voltage

Why transformers work with A.C. current but not D.C.

A.C current produces changing magnetic field.

D.C current produces changing magnetic field.

The function of a transformer is to ...

increase or decrease A.C voltage or A.C current levels

raise and lower the apparent power levels

transfer DC voltage from the primary winding to the secondary winding

transform mechanical energy into electrical energy

Choose the correct statement:

The ratio of the number of turns in the secondary winding to the number of turn in the primary winding determine the type of the transformer

The efficiency of a transformer is the percentage of the ratio of its input power to the output power

The ratio of the input apparent power to the output apparent power is less than 1 for a practical transformer

How can the direction of an induced potential be reversed?

By changing the direction of the magnetic field

By changing the direction of the magnetic field, and moving the magnet in the opposite direction

How can the voltage output from an alternator be doubled?

Halve the speed of rotation but reverse the direction of rotation

Reverse the direction of rotation

In a dynamo, what is the function of the split ring commutator?

It reverses the coil connections every half turn, to keep the output current in the same direction all the time

It strengthens the magnetic field to make a greater output current for the same rotation speed

It reverses the connections every half turn, to keep the output current alternating every half turn

It prevents the coil from overheating
