If I have a step down transformer, the voltage in the second coil decreases. From conservation of energy (Power of firstpower of second coil) the powers are equal. But if PU*I and the voltage decreases, does the second coil have a higher current in order to maintain its power?
A transformer makes use of Faraday's law and the ferromagnetic properties of an iron core to efficiently raise or lower AC voltages. It of course cannot increase power so that if the voltage is raised, the current is proportionally lowered and vice versa. hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hba Goodbye
