Flywheel is used with D.C. compound motor to reduce the peak demand by the motor, compound motor will have to be Cumulatively compounded Differentially compounded Level compounded Under compounded TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
The torque developed by a dc motor is directly proportional to Armature resistance × applied voltage Armature resistance × armature current Flux per pole × armature current None of the listed here TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
If a D.C. shunt motor is working at full load and if shunt field circuit suddenly opens Motor will come to stop This will result in excessive speed, possibly destroying armature due to excessive centrifugal stresses This will make armature to take heavy current, possibly burning it Nothing will happen to motor TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Which one of the following is not the function of pole shoes in a D.C. machine? To reduce the reluctance of the magnetic path To spread out flux for better uniformity To support the field coils To reduce eddy current loss TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
