If supply frequency of a transformer decreases,


Answer: (C) eddy current loss remains same and hysteresis losses will increase.

Explanation:
The total core loss Pc in terms of voltage and frequency is Pc = hysteresis loss + eddy current loss = KhVxf 1 - x + KeV2. Hence, eddy current is independent of frequency and hysteresis loss is inversely varies with frequency.
