A transformer is used to light a \(100~\text{W}\) and \(110~\text{V}\) lamp from a \(220~\text{V}\) main. If the main current is \(0.5~\text{A}\), the efficiency of the transformer is approximately:
1. \(30\%\)
2. \(50\%\)
3. \(90\%\)
4. \(10\%\)
1. | \(20~\mathrm{V}\) and \(2.0~\mathrm{mA}\) |
2. | \(10~\mathrm{V}\) and \(0.5~\mathrm{mA}\) |
3. | zero and therefore no current |
4. | \(20~\mathrm{V}\) and \(0.5~\mathrm{mA}\) |
