When voltage changes occur in rapid succession, with magnitudes large enough to cause lighting level variations. The human eye-brain response is most sensitive to periodic r.m.s. voltage changes that occur at around 8 - 10 cycles per second.
Voltage equation for Dc shunt generator, Eb = V + Ia*Ra V = Ish*Rsh Ish = 200/100 = 2 A Eb = V + Ia*Ra 20 = Ia*Ra Ia = 20/0.2 = 100 A I = 100 - 2 = 98 A
