Question

A transformer is to be used to match an $8-\Omega$ loudspeaker to a $500-\Omega$ audio line. What is the turns ratio of the transformer, and what are the voltages at the primary and secondary terminals when 10 W of audio power is delivered to the speaker? Assume that the speaker is a resistive load and that the transformer is ideal.

An output impedance of an audio amplifier has an impedance of $500 \Omega$ and has a mismatch with a low-impedance $8-\Omega$ loudspeaker. You are asked to insert an appropriate transformer to match the impedance's. What turns ratio will you use, and why? Use the simplified circuit shown below.

00:01 All right.
00:05 Basically for this question, i want the 8 -oam loudspeaker to match the 500 oms of the audio amplifier.
00:17 And so, when i write r sub p equals n -p over n -sub -sabre.
00:32 Squared r sub s.
00:37 I can rearrange that...
