What does a step-up transformer do?

• Decreases the current of a power source

• Increases the current of a power source

• Decreases the potential difference of a power source

• Increases the potential difference of a power source

What is the formula for calculating electrical power?

• P = V × I

• P = V / I

• P = I / V

• P = V + I

In a 100% efficient transformer, what is true about input and output power?

• Input power equals output power

• Input power is greater than output power

• Input power is less than output power

• Input power is unrelated to output power

What is the unit of potential difference?

What is the relationship between the number of turns on the coils and the potential difference in a transformer?

• The ratio of the potential differences is equal to the ratio of the number of turns

• The potential difference is directly proportional to the number of turns

• The potential difference is inversely proportional to the number of turns

• There is no relationship
