Constantin‘, also known as ‘Eureka wire‘, is the trade-name for a copper-nickel alloy (approx. 60:40 ratio) formulated in the late 1800s by Edward Weston.
The centrifugal switch is used to disconnect the starting winding of the motor once the motor approaches its normal operating speed i.e 50% – 70% speed.
Total resistance in the given circuit R = (250 + 250)MΩ = 500 MΩ Current I = V/R = 24/(500 × 103) Now the Voltage in the voltmeter = \dfrac{{24}}{{500 \times {{10}^3}}} \times 250 \times {10^3} V = 12 V
When variable loss becomes equal to the constant loss, efficiency is maximum. Losses = Pi + Pc Since copper loss is a variable loss therefore Losses = Pi + Pi = 2pi Thus at a maximum efficiency of this transformer total loss = 150 x 2 = 300 W
