The core of any transformer is laminated so as to:

  1. A
    reduce the energy loss due to eddy currents
  2. B
    make it light weight
  3. C
    make it robust and strong
  4. D
    increase the secondary voltage

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Laminations break the continuous path for eddy currents induced in the core by changing magnetic flux, thereby minimizing heating losses (energy loss) due to eddy currents.
