Why DC current is not used in transformer?

Answer Posted / swati

If you apply DC Voltage with sufficient capacity across
the primary or secondary of a transformer the current
flowing in the transformer will depend only on the
resistance of the winding . since the resistance is very
low high current will flow thru the winding and if it
continues for a resonable time the winding will get
burnt.

54 Comments Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = 38 + X*(Y – Z) where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be?
