#Given
RL=16                                                     # Ohms, load resistance
RLd=10000.0                                         # Ohms ,effective load resistance

#Calculation
import math
N12=math.sqrt(RLd/RL)                               #N12=N1/N2

# Result
print " The Transformer Turns Ratio is N1/N2",N12,":1"
 The Transformer Turns Ratio is N1/N2 25.0 :1

#Given Circuit Data
Rl=8.0                                        #Ohms, load resistance
N12=15.0                                  #N12=N1/N2, transformer turns ratio

#Calculation
Rld=(N12)**2*Rl                 #effective resistance

# Result
print " The Effective Resistance seen looking into the Primary, Rld =  ",Rld/10**3,"k ohm"

import math
P1=1        #say

#Calculation
D=math.sqrt(D2**2+D3**2+D4**2)    #Distortion Factor
P=(1+(D/100)**2)*P1
Pi=((P-P1)/P1)*100

#Result
print "The Percentage Increase in Power because of Distortion is, Pi (in percent)= ",round(Pi,2)
 The Second Harmonic Distortion is, D2 =  percent . 10.0
 The Third  Harmonic Distortion is, D3 =  percent . 8.0
 The Fourth Harmonic Distortion is, D4 =  percent . 3.33
The Percentage Increase in Power because of Distortion is, Pi (in percent)=  1.75
