Problem

An ideal transformer has a primary winding of 1000 turns connected to a 230 V230\,\text{V}, 50 Hz50\,\text{Hz} AC supply. The secondary consists of two identical windings of 200 turns each, connected in parallel to feed a 5.0 Ω5.0\,\Omega resistive load. The transformer operates at an efficiency of 90%90\%. (a) Calculate the RMS voltage across the load. (b) Find the current delivered to the load. (c) Determine the current in the primary winding. (d) Compute the total power loss in the transformer.
