Output of a transformer

Wind different numbers of turns on the secondary of an iron-cored transformer, measure the output with an a.c. voltmeter, and compare the voltage ratio with the turns ratio.

This simulation supports preparation and data-analysis practice. It does not replace carrying out real practical work.
