The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Ignoring power loss, power in primary = power in secondary. Power (P) = VI Primary voltage (VpV_p) = 220 V Secondary voltage (VsV_s) = 11000 V Power (P) = 88 W Secondary current (IsI_s) = ?

88 = 11000

    i=8811×103=8×103 A\implies i = \frac{88}{11 \times 10^3} = 8 \times 10^{-3} \text{ A}

    i=8 mA\implies i = 8 \text{ mA}
