A $4-\mathrm{kVA}, 2400 / 240-\mathrm{V} \mathrm{rms}$ transformer has 250 turns on the primary side. Calculate: (a) the turns ratio, (b) the number of turns on the secondary side, (c) the primary and secondary currents.
Question-3: A 100 kVA, 3300/200 volt, 50 Hz single-phase transformer has 40 turns on the secondary. Calculate: a. The values of primary and secondary currents. b. The number of primary turns. c. The maximum value of the flux. If the transformer is to be used on a 25 Hz system, calculate: d. The primary voltage, assuming that the flux is increased by 10%. e. The kVA rating of the transformer, assuming the current density in the windings to be unaltered.

A step-up transformer is designed to have an output voltage of $2200 \mathrm{~V}(\mathrm{rms})$ when the primary is connected across a 110-V (rms) source. (a) If there are 80 turns on the primary winding, how many turns are required on the secondary? (b) If a load resistor across the secondary draws a current of $1.50 \mathrm{~A}$, what is the current in the primary under ideal conditions? (c) If the transformer actually has an efficiency of $95.0 \%$, what is the current in the primary when the secondary current is $1.20 \mathrm{~A} ?$
