Q. In transformer, the core is made up of soft iron in order to pass the maximum

1. flux
2. current
3. magnetic flux
4. voltage

Answer: Magnetic Flux

Why is the core of a transformer made of soft iron?

The soft iron core increases the strength of the magnetic field inside a transformer. The main purpose of using an iron core in a transformer because iron is a magnetic material and it is easily available everywhere. The core is laminated to reduce the Eddy current and hence Eddy current losses.

The soft iron core increases the strength of the magnetic field.
