Question
What is the principle behind the working of a
transformer? ÂSolution
A transformer works on Faraday's law of induction.  It uses electromagnetic induction to change the voltage in alternating current (AC) circuits.  A varying current in the primary coil induces a varying magnetic field, which in turn induces a current in the secondary coil.  This allows voltage to be increased or decreased.
