1. An amplifier is to be connected to a loudspeaker by means of a two-winding transformer. The loud-
speaker can be considered as a resistive load of 8Ω. The amplifier can be modeled as a source of audio
frequency voltage in series with a resistance of 1000Ω. Assuming an ideal transformer, determine the
turns ratio that will provide maximum power into the loudspeaker.

A single-phase center-tapped transformer rectifier has an ac source of 240 V rms and 60 Hz. The overall transformer turns ratio is 3:1 (80 V between the extreme ends of the secondary and 40 V on each tap). The load is a resistance of 462 Ω. Determine (a) the average load current, (b) the rms load current, (c) the average source current, and (d) the rms source current. Sketch the current waveforms of the load and the source

Construct the circuit in Figure 2 in the Circuit JS simulator. Note that transformers in Circuit JS may be unstable. It is suggested to draw them by clicking from the bottom left corner to the top right corner and refresh your simulation before taking a measurement. 2. Perform a simulation, displaying the voltage across the voltage source, the current through R1, and the current through R2 in a “stacked” scope. Display the RMS average for each trace. Include a screenshot.
Analysis 1. Compare the simulation results for the currents through R1 and R2. What is the percentage difference between the calculated and simulated value for each? Comment on why there may be a discrepancy.
