A series generator is connected in series to a feeder having 0.5Ω resistance to boost the voltage. The induced voltage is given by Eg = 0.6Ia, Ra = 0.2Ω and Rs = 0.3Ω. Find the voltage boosted by the generator, when delivering 400 Amp?

 30 V.
 90 V.
 40 V.
 60 V.

A dc shunt generator, when driven without any excitation, showed an open circuit voltage of 12 V. When the field winding was excited, the voltage dropped to zero. It happened because

 there was a break in the armature circuit
 field resistance was higher than critical resistance
 field winding was wrongly connected
 there was no residual magnetism in the field circuit
