The relationship defined by Vp × Ip = Vs × Is in a transformer represents power conservation. In this equation, "Vp" is the primary voltage, "Ip" is the primary current, "Vs" is the secondary voltage, and "Is" is the secondary current. This equation indicates that the power input to the transformer (primary side) is equal to the power output (secondary side), assuming an ideal situation with no losses.

Power is defined as the product of voltage and current, so when the transformer operates, the power supplied to the primary coil (from the source) should equal the power delivered to the secondary coil (leading to the load). This principle follows from the law of conservation of energy, where energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.

The other options describe different concepts that do not specifically relate to this equation. For example, energy conservation pertains more broadly to the overall energy input and output over time, while both voltage and current conservation are not typically terms applied in this context of transformers, where power is the critical factor being transferred efficiently.
