A resistor of \(40~\Omega\) is connected to the secondary of a step-down transformer, with an input voltage of \(200~\text V\) and an output of \(20~\text V\) across the secondary.
The resistance as seen in the primary circuit is: (ignoring power losses)
1. \(40~\Omega\)
2. \(4~\Omega\)
3. \(0.4~\Omega\)
4. \(4~\text k\Omega\)
An alternating current generator has an internal resistance \(R_{g}\) and an internal reactance \(X_{g}\). It is used to supply power to a passive load consisting of a resistance \(R_{g}\) and a reactance \(X_{L}\). For maximum power to be delivered from the generator to the load, the value of \(X_{L}\) is equal to:
1. zero
2. \(X_g\)
3. \(-X_g\)
4. \(R_g\)
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
