An $80 \text{ W}$ lamp is connected to the secondary of a step-down transformer, where the primary is connected to an $AC$ mains of $220 \text{ V}$. Assuming the transformer to be ideal, the current in the primary winding is nearly: (in $\text{ A}$)

  • A
    $3.6$
  • B
    $2.8$
  • C
    $0.36$
  • D
    $0.28$
