← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when eddy currents cannot circulate freely within a transformer core?
A)Increased core operating temperature✓
B)Enhanced electromagnetic induction strength
C)Suppressed magnetic field interference
D)Reduced hysteresis energy loss
💡 Explanation
Increased core temperature results because energy dissipates through resistive heating; power dissipation increases via **Joule heating**, caused by energy dissipation when current flows encountering electrical resistance rather than inducing ideal magnetic fields which would result in efficient transfer. Therefore, temperature rises rather than other effects because induced currents cause greater heating.
