Answer / akhilesh kumar singh
because of iron core we can get better flux induction and easily instead of wooden core.

Answer / muhammad asghar
The purpose of core is to provide low reluctance path for
the magnetic flux linking primary and secondary windings.
So if we can't magnetize core electrically then there is no
use of core in transformer. This is the reason for using
electrical steel in transformer as a CORE material because
we can't magnetize wooden material electrically due to its
high reluctance.

Dham Nazzal
iron core has a Good Permability, which is same as
conductivity in the conductors, which is the abality of
carring the mag. flux.

Answer / nitin shridhar
Just Compare
Electrical circuit Vs Magnetic Circuit.
In Electrical
Voltage= Current* Resistance
In Magnetic
MMF= Flux * Reluctance
We use Copper wire in Electrical circuit as its Resistance is low. Similarly We use Iron as Core Because its Reluctance is small.

Answer / arshad
Wood is a insulator but have low reluctance than air so if you are using a wooden core in place of iron or steel core in the transformer than leakage flux is very high so losses are very high and mutual flux is very less so the efficiency of the transformer is very less.

Answer / siba murugan .k
Woooden is a insulator and it doesnot carry any magnetic
flux . Iron core have good flux induction b/w the primary
and secondary.
Pls correct me, if i made a mistake
