Question 312218: A transformer has a primary voltage of 480 volts and a secondary voltage of 120 volts. If the primary windings have 700 turns, how many turns are in the secondary windings? (Voltage and number of turns are directly proportional.) Found 2 solutions by nyc_function, Edwin McCravy:Answer by nyc_function(2741) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let t = number of turns in the secondary windings
480/120 = 700/t
Solve for t and you will have your answer.
HINT: Cross-multiply and then divide to find t.
