Finding Turns Ratio for Different Transformer Configurations

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the turns ratio for different transformer configurations using impedance values provided. The transformer is designed to match various impedances, specifically 600 W to 10 kW and 150 W to 10 kW. The user seeks clarification on applying the formula Rl/Rp=(Ns/Np)^2 for the given configurations and whether to consider each impedance pair separately. Participants emphasize that while they can offer hints, they will not complete the calculations for the user. Understanding the relationships between the impedance values and the turns ratio is crucial for solving the problem.

So I was studying on transformer calculations and understand it all pretty well until coming across these questions that I don't really understand. There's about 6 of them but if someone could work out 2 for me so I can understand it and finish it off it would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Electrical Specifications: Impedance at 1 kHz
1 - 2 150 W

2 - 3 150 W

1 - 3 600 W

4 - 5 10 kW

DC Resistance

1 - 3 23 W

4 - 5 400 W

Rated Power 2 W

-->This transformer is designed to match impedances 600 W (pins 1-3) to 10 kW (pins 4-5) or 150 W (pins 1-2 or 2-3) to 10 kW (pins 4-5).

-->Note that you can reverse primary and secondary to match 10 kW (pins 4-5) to either 150 W (pins 1-2 or 2-3) or 600 W (pins 1-3).

For each of the configurations in Figure 11, calculate the turns ratio NS/NP. Use Equation (6) and the transformer specifications on page 6 to calculate the turns ratios for each combination and provide a formula that gives VS as a function of VP. Enter your results in the table below.

NS/NP:

VS = f(VP):

Step-up / Step-down:

My attempt:
so I'm trying to figure out the turns ratio of each of them and I think you use the formula Rl/Rp=(Ns/Np)^2 where n is the amount of turns and R is the impedance. would the impedance be 600 ohms and 10 k ohms? do I have to consider each part as 1-2, 1-3 and 4-5?

Sorry, but PF is not a homework service.

If you want to take a stab at solving your problem, we'll provide hints and suggestions, but we don't do your work for you. It's against the Rules.
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
