2.1. A conductor moves on, and makes contact with a set of parallel rails at a speed of 60 cm/s. A resistor R of 10 is connected to the points ab, as illustrated in the following figure. The conductor length in the field is 40 cm. Determine the direction and magnitude of the current through R. a L=40 cm v B=0.1T b R
2.3. A six-pole armature is wound with 456 conductors. The speed and flux are such that 1V is generated in each conductor. The conductor current is 40A. Determine the generated voltage and total current if the winding is (a) lap connected, (76 V) (b) wave connected. (228 V) (c) what is the total generated power in each case? (18240 W)
4.1. A 240-v dc motor takes an armature current of 20 A when running at 960 r/min. The armature resistance is 0.2 . Determine the no-load speed, assuming negligible losses. (975.6 rpm) 4.2. What would be the no-load speed in Problem 4.1 if the armature current is 1 A at no load? (974.8 rpm) 4.9. A 220-v dc shunt motor has an armature resistance of 0.3 . Calculate (a) the resistance required in series with the armature to limit the armature current to 80 A at starting, and (2.45 ) (b) the value of the counter EMF when the armature current has decreased to 30 A with the resistor still in the circuit. (137.5 V) 4.10. A 15-hp 230-v shunt motor has a full load armature current of 56 A at 1200r/min. the armature resistance is 0.2 . Determine: (a) the internal developed power and torque at rated load;(12252.8W, 97.5 Nm) (b) the torque when the field current is reduced to 90% of its value instantaneously; and (259.3 Nm) (c) the final speed for part (b). (1325.7 rpm) Assume that the horsepower load on the shaft remains constant throughout.
