If the turns ratio of a transformer is 5, the secondary voltage is greater than the primary voltage by factor _____?

Answer: 5
Explanation

The turns ratio of a transformer is given by:

n = N₂ / N₁ = V₂ / V₁

Where:

- n is the turns ratio

- N₁ and N₂ are the number of turns in the primary and secondary coils

- V₁ and V₂ are the primary and secondary voltages

Given n = 5:

V₂ / V₁ = 5

This means the secondary voltage is greater than the primary voltage by a factor of 5.
