Hi,
My Question:
A model train transformer plugs into 120-V ac and draws 0.35A while supplying 7.5A to the train. (a)What voltage is present across the tracks? (b) is the transformer step-up or step down?
Work
Part A:
I'V'=I"V"
(0.25A)(120V)=(7.5A)(V")
((0.25A)(120V))/(7.5A)=V"
V"=5.6V
Part B:
Step-down, because the secondary voltage is lower than the primary voltage.
Is it correct
Thank You![Smile :smile: :smile:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
