When the speed of a DC motor increases, the armature current
When the speed of a DC motor increases, the armature current:
- Remains constant
- Increases
- Decreases
- None of the above
Correct answer: 3. Decreases
With respect to the direction of rotation, the interpoles on a DC motor should have the same polarity as the main poles
With respect to the direction of rotation, the interpoles on a DC motor should have the same polarity as the main poles:
- Ahead of them
- Behind them
- Both of these
- None of these
Correct answer: 2. Behind them
Once a shunt motor is up to speed, the speed can be increased considerably by
