A transformer steps up 220 V to 2200 V. The turn ratio (secondary to primary) is MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A transformer steps up 220 V to 2200 V. The turn ratio (secondary to primary) is
A. 1:1
B. 220:1
C. 1:10
D. 10:1
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
For ideal transformer, V_s/V_p = N_s/N_p. So N_s/N_p = 2200/220 = 10. So secondary turns 10 times primary. Ratio 10:1. Step-up increases voltage.

Which of the following is a vector quantity?
A. Magnetic flux
B. Resistance
C. Magnetic field intensity
D. Electric potential

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Magnetic field intensity (H) and magnetic field (B) are vectors. Magnetic flux is scalar (Φ = B·A). Resistance scalar, potential scalar. Vector quantities have direction. Current has direction but adds by scalar law, considered tensor sometimes but in basic physics not vector.

Electric motor works on principle of:
A. Thermal expansion
B. Electrostatic attraction
C. Force on current in magnetic field
D. Electromagnetic induction

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Motor: current-carrying conductor in magnetic field experiences Lorentz force (F = ILB), causing rotation. Generator uses reverse principle (induction). Memory tip: 'Motor: electricity ⇒ motion (force); Generator: motion ⇒ electricity (induction)'. Device principle question frequently tested in competitive electromagnetism sections.

Which of the following materials is used as a fuse wire?
A. Tin-lead alloy
B. Aluminium
C. Silver
D. Copper

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Fuse wire made of alloy of tin and lead (or copper with low melting point). It has low melting point and high resistance. Copper has high melting point, not suitable for fuse. Silver expensive. Aluminium not typical.
