The operational principle of transformer is based on

A

Electromagnetic induction

B

Newton's law

C

Electromagnetic effect

D

Ampere's law

Answer

Electromagnetic induction

Explanation

Solution

Transformers operate on the principle of electromagnetic induction. An alternating current in the primary coil creates a changing magnetic flux, which then induces an electromotive force in the secondary coil due to mutual induction. Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction is the key principle at play.
