Givens:\color{#4257b2}\text{Givens:}

We are given a transformer with the following parameters,

  • Np=680  turnsN_p= 680 \;\mathrm{turns}: is the number of turns of the primary coil.

  • Ns=85  turnsN_s= 85 \;\mathrm{turns}: is the number of turns of the secondary coil.

We are required to,

Determine the type of the transformer.

Calculate the factor by which the voltage changes from the primary coil voltage VpV_p to the secondary coil one VsV_s; the ratio VsVp\frac{V_s}{V_p}.

Evaluate the factor by which the current changes from the primary coil current IpI_p to the secondary coil one IsI_s; the ratio IsIp\frac{I_s}{I_p}.
