What is the step-down turns ratio of a transformer with 200 turns in the primary and 100 turns in the secondary? 2: Opening the secondary circuit of a current transformer under load will cause a dangerous level of induced high voltage What is the frequency of an AC waveform that completes 20 cycles per half second? 40Hz A circuit has a peak voltage of 275V. What is the average voltage value? 175V Each of three equal capacitors in series has one-third the applied voltage The formula for inductive reactance is XL = 2πfL What is the current flow in a purely resistive AC circuit if the resistance is 15 ohms and the voltage is 150V? 10A If the area of the plates of a capacitor is increased, the amount of capacitance increases The self-induced voltage across an inductance is produced by a change in current with respect to time A 30-microfarad capacitor is in parallel with a 15-microfarad capacitor. The total capacitance is 45 One type of nonsinusoidal waveform is the square wave According to the power triangle, the apparent power is greater than the true power A device that uses electromagnetic induction to transfer electrical energy from one circuit to another is a(n) transformer
If a transformer has 200 turns in the primary, 100 turns in the secondary, and 150VAC applied to the primary, the voltage across the secondary is 75VAC Transformers in which the primary and secondary voltages are 180 degrees out of phase are known as unlike-wound transformers Reactive power is always 90° out of phase with true power If the time for one cycle is 0.1 second, the frequency is 10Hz If the phase angles of two sine waves are both 0 degrees, then the waves are in phase What is the true power in a 2A series RL circuit with a 100Ω resistor? 400W The opposing force that an inductor presents to the flow of alternating current is called inductive reactance The power factor can be defined as the ratio of true power to apparent power In a circuit that has both capacitance and resistance, the current will lead the voltage by some angle between 0° and 90° If the vector diagram of two AC waveforms is a right angle, then the waves are 90° out of phase In an inductive AC circuit, when the applied voltage is at its maximum negative value, the current is zero The product of the source voltage and the total current is apparent power
