    The principle of working of Transformer is
    Question

    The principle of working of Transformer is

    A.

    Self Induction

    B.

    Static induction

    C.

    Mutual Induction

    D.

    Dynamic induction

    Correct option is C


    A transformer works on the principle of mutual induction. So the answer is (c). 
    Explanation: A transformer uses two coils, a primary and a secondary, where a changing magnetic field in the primary coil induces a voltage in the secondary coil due to the phenomenon of mutual induction. 
    Self-induction: This occurs when a changing current in a coil induces a voltage within the same coil. 
    Static induction: This refers to the electric field induced on a conductor due to a nearby charged object, not relevant to transformer operation. 
    Dynamic induction: This involves generating voltage through relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field, which is not how a transformer works.
