  3. The turns ratio is greater than one
  4. The power output is less than the power input

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a step-up transformer, which of the following is true?
  • Step 1: Understand what a transformer is. A transformer is a device that changes the voltage of electricity.
  • Step 2: Know the two types of transformers: step-up and step-down. A step-up transformer increases voltage, while a step-down transformer decreases it.
  • Step 3: Learn about the turns ratio. This is the number of wire loops (turns) in the primary coil compared to the secondary coil.
  • Step 4: In a step-up transformer, the turns ratio is greater than one. This means there are more turns in the secondary coil than in the primary coil.
  • Step 5: Because of this higher turns ratio, the voltage in the secondary coil is higher than the voltage in the primary coil.
