A step down or step up transformer consists of 2 coils electrically insulated from each other but within each others magnetic field. In a step down transformer, the primary or input winding has more turns on the coil than the secondary or output winding and the final output voltage depends on the ratio of turns in the 2 coils. The primary or input winding is fed with A/C current which induces an electromagnetic current in the secondary coil. This produces a smaller A/C voltage in the secondary winding.
The A/C voltage then needs to be converted to direct current using diodes. This produces D/C voltage which is genuine DC but very rough ie pulsed on off. This then needs to be smoothed out into a clean D/C voltage by the use of capacitors. The resultant output is smooth clean direct current which is usable at this point but subject to fluctuation in voltage depending on input voltage or output loading.
It is usual to apply voltage regulation to provide a stable DC regulated voltage. The input A/C current at 50 or 60 Hz or whatever is irrelevant.

1.frequency does not change in a transformer.
2. instruments which are calibrated for use with a particular
frequency will give faulty results.

I don't remember the exact reason, but a transformer consists of two coils (one having more than the other), and somehow something happens there. Dang it, I wish I could remember everything I've ever learned!!

I think you'll find that a transformer works on VOLTAGE not FREQUENCY.
