  3. Magnetic resonance
  4. Thermal conduction

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A transformer works on the principle of:
  • Step 1: Understand that a transformer has two coils of wire, called the primary coil and the secondary coil.
  • Step 2: Know that when electricity flows through the primary coil, it creates a magnetic field around it.
  • Step 3: Realize that this magnetic field changes as the electricity changes (alternating current).
  • Step 4: Understand that this changing magnetic field passes through the secondary coil.
  • Step 5: Learn that the changing magnetic field induces (creates) an electric current in the secondary coil.
  • Step 6: Conclude that this process of creating electricity in the secondary coil from the primary coil is called electromagnetic induction.
  • Electromagnetic Induction – The process by which a changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force (EMF) in a conductor.
