To determine

The synchronous speed of the six pole motor operated with an applied voltage of 20 hertz.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Consider the formula for the synchronous speed is,

    Ns=120fP

Then, the synchronous speed is calculated as,

    Ns=120206=400rpm

Thus, the synchronous speed is 400rpm.

A motor works when it is connected to AC. By mistake you connect it to DC, but you see it also works with DC. What kind of motor is it?
Name three factors that determine the amount of voltage induced in the rotor of a wound-rotor motor.
QUESTION 8 Consider the equations of motion of an armature controlled DC motor given by Jw(t)+bw (t) Ki(t) = -Tfriction - Tload (t) di (t) + Ri (t) + Kw (t) = Vin (t), dt where vin(t) is the input voltage and Tload(t) is the input load torque. The outputs are the armature current i(t) and the motor speed w(t). The steady-state response of motors are specified by nominal voltage, stall torque, stall current, no load speed, and no load current. At steady-state operation, the motor equations satisfy bo) -Ki =-T -T. fric load Ri +Kov_- 55 55 The stall torque is the load torque required stead-state speed of the motor is zero. The stall current is the armature current when the motor speed is zero. The no load speed is the speed of motor when the load torque is zero. The no load current is the current when the load torque is zero. What is stall torque for this motor in N-m? Keep 3 significant figures, and do not include units. Use Scientific notation. The constants are given below. Nominal…
