What confirms the fact that the transfer of energy from the primary to the secondary of a transformer is not perfect?
- AWarm iron laminations
- BNoisy operation
- CLarge secondary current
- DHigh primary voltage
Correct answer: A — Warm iron laminations. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.
Why
When electricity flows through a transformer, some energy turns into heat inside the metal core instead of moving to the output. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
