Secondary Voltage=240/8 = 30V
Peak Load Voltage= √2 x 30 = 42.5V

The

.... filter circuit

results in the best voltage regulation

1. choke input

2. capacitor input

3. resistance input

4. none of the above

Emf/ turn are constant in a transferred.
Secondary vtg = 240/8= 30
In half wave rectifier pic= ✓2 x Vm
✓2*30=42.5.
