Class 12 Physics simulations · Alternating Current

Ideal transformer

Change the turn ratio and compare primary and secondary RMS voltages.

Open the simulation

What to notice

A step-up transformer increases voltage while reducing current for the same transferred power.

Key relation

Vs/Vp = Ns/Np

Try this

Double secondary turns while keeping primary turns fixed.

What you can change

• Primary turns: 100 to 1000
• Secondary turns: 100 to 1000
• Primary RMS voltage: 20 to 240 V
