Analysis
1. Which core configuration gives the maximum transfer of electromagnetic effect to the
secondary coil? Develop a theory to explain the differences between configurations.
2. From your data in table 1.2, for a primary having a constant number of turns, graph the
resulting output voltage versus the number of turns in the secondary. What type of mathe-
matical relationship exists between numbers of turns of wire and the resulting output voltage?
Is the data ideal? Why or why not?
3. Consider further improvements to your transformer. What additional changes might you
make to increase the transfer from one coil to the other?
