what is transformer

Answer Posted / c.satheeshkumar

1.The EMF predicted by Faraday's law is also responsible
for electrical transformers. When the electric current in a
loop of wire changes, the changing current creates a
changing magnetic field. A second wire in reach of this
magnetic field will experience this change in magnetic
field as a change in its coupled magnetic flux, a d ΦB /d
t. Therefore, an electromotive force is set up in the
second loop called the induced EMF or transformer EMF. If
the two ends of this loop are connected through an
electrical load, current will flow.
2.A transformer is a device that transfers electrical
energy from one circuit to another through inductively
coupled conductors—the transformer's coils. A varying
current in the first or primary winding creates a varying
magnetic flux in the transformer's core, and thus a varying
magnetic field through the secondary winding. This varying
magnetic field induces a varying electromotive force (EMF)
or "voltage" in the secondary winding. This effect is
called mutual induction.

54 Comments Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = 38 + X*(Y – Z) where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be?
