An ideal transformer is shown in Fig. 9.1. input primary coil 1200 turns Fig.9.1 core output secondary coil (b) An alternating voltage of peak value 150V is applied across the 1200 turns of the primary coil. The variation with time t of the e.m.f. E induced across the secondary coil is shown in Fig. 9.2. 60 E/V 40 20 0 0 -20 -40 -60 5.0 10.0 15.0 20.0 t/ms 25.0 Fig. 9.2 (c) A resistor is connected between the output terminals of the secondary coil. The mean power dissipated in the resistor is 1.2 W. It may be assumed that the varying voltage across the resistor is equal to the varying e.m.f. E shown in Fig. 9.2.
