MCQ
We can reduce eddy currents in the core of transformer
  • A
    By increasing the number of turns in secondary coil
  • By taking laminated core
  • C
    By making step-down transformer
  • D
    By using a weak ac at high potential

Answer

Correct option: B.
By taking laminated core
b
Given, Four options

To find, How we can reduce eddy current in the core of a transformer.

we know, Energy is lossed in transformer due to eddy current, which heated rep the core. Eddy current can be reduced by taking laminated core.
