Transformers

Use the space to work together to draw/write what you remember about transformers

Starter:

Learning Goals:Describe how electromagnetic induction applies to a transformerCalculate voltages, currents and powers using the transformer equationExplain how transformers are used in the national grid. 

Transformers

What is the shape of the magnetic field around a solenoid?

Learning Goals:Describe how electromagnetic induction applies to a transformerCalculate voltages, currents and powers using the transformer equationExplain how transformers are used in the national grid.

What would happen to the field if we used an A.C. current?

What would happen if we were to place a different solenoid inside this one?

TransformersThings to remember:• You need a CHANGING magnetic field to induce a Voltage

An Iron core means the field is "strengthened"

TransformersThings to remember:• You need a CHANGING magnetic field to induce a Voltage

• Ratio of turns on primary and secondary is equal to ratio of voltage across primary and secondary

• Power is conserved across a transformer (VpIp = VsIs)• Transformers are in reality not 100% efficient
