What is the voltage output (in V) of a transformer used for rechargeable flashlight batteries, if its primary has 480 turns, its secondary 8 turns, and the input voltage is 118 V

1.97 V

Explanation:

Applying

N1/N2 = V1/V2 Equation 1

Where N1 = primary turns, N2 = Secondary turns, V1 = primary/input voltage, V2 = secondary/output voltage.

make V2 the subject of the equation

V2 = V1(N2/N1) Equation 2

Given: V1 = 118 V, N1 = 480 turns, V2 = 8 turns.

Substitute into equation 2

V2 = 118(8/480)

V2 = 1.97 V.
