A 60 W load is connected to the secondary of a transformer whose primary draws line voltage. If a current of 0.54 A flows in the load, what is the current in the primary coil? Comment on the type of transformer being used.

is given as

is given as

Primary voltage is given as

The transformer is a step-down transformer because the secondary voltage is lower than the primary voltage.

The transformation ratio is,

On putting the values we get,
